Knietzsche and Health
For Knietzsche, the matter is clear: health must run like clockwork for life to run smoothly. Health is not a matter of course and is a constant process - often your engine is running at peak performance, but your body or your emotions can also get sick. If you are smart, you train your immune system.
Hidden Plastics: The Teabag Experiment
This short science education film is designed to be accessible for children and teenagers, although adults would likely also find this engaging and informative. Using live shots and some animation, the film takes the audience through an experiment to identify the non-biodegradable 'hidden plastic' in teabags.
Food from the Forest
This short documentary film concerns the food foraging traditions of marginalized tribal populations in Bihar, India. Its content became particularly relevant with the advent of Covid, when markets were closed and tribal populations needed to learn how to return to old systems of food collection/production in order to survive.
Alongside the screenings, participants will discuss the need to eat different kinds of food, and then get hands on planning recipes for food dishes that include and celebrate all the colours of the rainbow!
