Combining science and speculative fiction, Last Things considers the meaning of life through rocks—Earth’s elemental parts that have survived millennia. Using macro and micro images of geological formations alongside testimony from scientists and writers, this work of experimental nonfiction invites us to see evolution as a process that extends beyond the human-centered perspective. 2023, US, 35mm, in English and French with English subtitles, 50 min.
A conversation with filmmaker Deborah Stratman and artist Andy Graydon follows the screening.
