Pickford Film Center
IN PARTNERSHIP WITH BELLINGHAM THEATERWORKS
The true, stranger-than-fiction, adventure of eight visionaries who in 1991 spent two years quarantined inside of a self-engineered replica of Earth's ecosystem called Biosphere 2. The experiment was a worldwide phenomenon, chronicling daily existence in the face of life-threatening ecological disaster and a growing criticism that it was nothing more than a cult.
Post-film discussion moderated by Biosphere playwright Steve Lyons.
