FILM REVIEWS

SECRETS IN THE SCAT (Austria)

Directed by: Ruth Berry

Country of origin: Austria
Duration: 51 minutes

The science of animal poo! Follow wildlife biologist Scott Burnett, aka Scat Man, as he looks for the facts in the faeces of endangered species! Scat is the word biologists use for animal poo. It’s pure gold for researchers. A window into ecology without having to harm an animal – or a scientist.

HOW COVID-19 MRNA VACCINES WORK (USA)

Directed by: Donald Rayne Mitchell

Duration: 2 minutes

COVID-19 mRNA vaccines deliver directions to make a protein that educates our immune system, so it will neutralise the virus in future encounters. The mRNA-containing lipid particles are taken up by specialised immune system cells.

SHATTERING STARS (USA)

Directed by: Peter Galison

Duration: 12 minutes

Shattering Stars tells a story of ambition and betrayal, of loss and perseverance at the pinnacle of scientific research. Making use of original audio recordings of Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar (Chandra), the film alternates its limited-motion animation between a representational-documentary and imaginative-subjective style.
