Film screening: JANE
PZA/013, Piazza Building, Campus East, University of York (Map)
Event details
Drawing from over 100 hours of never-before-seen footage that has been tucked away in the National Geographic archives for over 50 years, award-winning director Brett Morgen tells the story of JANE, a woman whose chimpanzee research challenged the male-dominated scientific consensus of her time and revolutionized our understanding of the natural world.
Set to a rich orchestral score from legendary composer Philip Glass, the film offers an unprecedented, intimate portrait of Jane Goodall — a trailblazer who defied the odds to become one of the world’s most admired conservationists.
This is a free event, open to both staff and students at the University and the International Pathway College.
Screenings: 1.30pm (90 minutes); 3pm (90 minutes)
Location: Piazza building (PZA/013) on Campus East.
Refreshments: Please bring a drink and sit on a comfy sota to watch the film.
