Short Science: From Earth to Stars
various short films / 70 mins / English / Nomination Science & Media Awards 23
From microorganisms in the soil to satellite data on volcanic eruptions to the stars: these short films tell the story of natural phenomena and the people who research them. T-shirts or stickers that say "Save Whales" are sure to have come across many. "Save parasites", on the other hand, sounds rather strange. Why are researchers now campaigning for precisely these creatures? This short film session is dedicated to these and other questions.
