- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 03 Dec, 2025 at 07:30 pm
- **Event Description**: The Coolidge Corner Theatre’s Science on Screen® series has enhanced film and scientific literacy with this popular program, which launched at the Coolidge in 2005. In partnership with the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation and its pioneering nationwide film program, the Coolidge has expanded Science on Screen to 122 cinemas nationwide.

Sarah Goodwin, PhD, Executive Director of the Science Communication Lab as well as Executive Producer of OBSERVER and series host Jason Dick, Editor in Chief of Roll Call, discuss why simple observation of natural phenomenon is so important and how it can lead to a deeper understanding of not just the subject matter but the people, culture and broader world around it.

In OBSERVER, filmmaker Ian Cheney embarks on an experiment in which he brings a series of keen-eyed observers – scientists, artists, a hunter – to a range of locations around the world, often without telling them where they are going, and asks them simply to describe what they see. What unfolds is a deep exploration and celebration of the power of observation: what happens when you find new ways to sense and perceive the world around you? With customary whimsy and a small painted red square that Cheney brings on every journey, the film is an invitation to viewers to find beauty and meaning in even the most quotidian of locales.
