Contact, Robert Zemeckis, (USA, 1997)
In this Zemeckis-directed adaptation of the Carl Sagan novel, Dr. Ellie Arroway (Jodie Foster) races to interpret a possible message originating from the Vega star system. Once first contact with an extraterrestrial intelligence is proven, Arroway contends with restrictive National Security Advisor Kitz (James Woods) and religious fanatics bent on containing the implications of such an event. An incredible message is found hidden in the signal, but will Arroway be the one to answer its call?
Before the film, enjoy one of the most irreverent, rigorous and crazy scientific monologues: Will an extraterrestrial civilization discover and contact us? Is that really feasible? And if they did, could we meet them? Find out all this and much more in Big Van Ciencia's Scientific Monologues, a theatrical show full of the most pioneering science related to the film Contact directed with the most intelligent humor. Although it may not seem like it at first glance, all the people from Big Van Ciencia that you will see on stage have a doctorate in science or technology! Doors open at 21:30, monologue at 22:00 and film at 22:30.
Tickets are €12 and include the Big Van Science monologue, open-air movie, access to the museum, the temporary exhibition and special activities open from 20:30 to 23:30 for adult audiences. Film will be screened in original version with Spanish subtitles.
A film in the 2024 edition of CosmoNits.
