SUMMARY:Science on Screen®: THE POD GENERATION - Who owns the future of reproduction?
DESCRIPTION:THE POD GENERATION\nby Sophie Barthes\nwith special guest speaker TBA \nPart of the SCIENCE ON SCREEN® Series\nAn initiative of the Coolidge Corner Theatre in partnership with the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation \nTHE POD GENERATION\n2023\, USA/France\, Sci-fi comedy/satire\, 110 minutes\nAlfred P. Sloan Feature Film Prize  at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival \nIn Sophie Barthes’ witty\, unsettling The Pod Generation\, a New York couple (Emilia Clarke\, Chiwetel Ejiofor) is offered a tantalizing new possibility: instead of pregnancy\, they can grow their baby in a detachable artificial womb\, or “pod”\, provided by a powerful tech company. For Rachel\, a rising executive\, it promises freedom and convenience. For Alvy\, a botanist who believes in the messy\, organic rhythms of nature\, it represents something much harder to embrace. \nWinner of the Alfred P. Sloan Feature Film Prize at Sundance\, The Pod Generation uses a near-future fantasy to ask questions that are becoming increasingly real: Could artificial wombs transform pregnancy and parenting? Would they liberate us from the physical demands of reproduction\, or create new forms of control? And when technology can make reproduction more convenient\, who gets to decide what progress looks like? \nTickets:\n$7/adult (plus $5 Symphony Space Facility Fee added at checkout)\n$5/seniors & students (plus $5 Symphony Space Facility Fee added at checkout) \nBUY TICKETS HERE \nThis program is supported\, in part\, by public funds from the NYC Department of Youth and Community Development (DYCD) in partnership with the City Council and the office of NY City Council Majority Leader Shaun Abreu and Speaker Julie Menin
