Introducing CineMATHic Movie Nights
Immerse yourselves into a night of cinemathic magic! RCIScience and the Fields Institute are thrilled to bring you a free movie night every month, perfect for film buffs or just fans of good storytelling!
Don’t miss your ticket to watch (or rewatch) a diverse lineup of our favourite films, from thrillers and sci-fi to biopics and comedies. Join us afterwards as we uncover the movies in reel life and how life imitates art and art imitates life through fireside chats with film experts, mathematicians and scientists. Seats are limited to the laws of number theory, so grab yours quickly!
Kick off our series by riding into another dimension with 1997 Argentine sci-fi/thriller film, Moebius. Based on the classic 1950 short story "A Subway Named Mobius" by Armin Joseph Deutsch, the film is set in the Buenos Aires Underground, in a dark and dystopian Argentina. Embark on a journey of mysteries, missing trains (and people!), topology and hijinks.
Moderator Kyne Santos will lead a conversation with film expert, Diana Sanchez, as well as the director himself, Gustavo Mosquera R, as they take us behind the scenes of this cult classic and explore the mathematics woven into the story.
