Dir. Matthieu Rytz | Documentary | U.S.A. | 2023 | 1 hr. 33 min.

While the batteries that power the electric-vehicle revolution are reducing our dependence on fossil fuels, the rare metals needed to produce them require yet more extraction of natural resources. In this timely documentary about the burgeoning global interest in seafloor mining expeditions, director Matthieu Rytz (Anote’s Ark) takes a fly-on-the-wall approach, following mining startup The Metals Company as it leads the corporate charge into our planet’s last relatively unplundered place. Jason Momoa (Game of Thrones, Aquaman) narrates.

Tickets for this screening are general admission, and pay-what-you-can.
