Description:

Please join us for the Film and Philosophy Society's third showing of Winter Quarter: the 2004 sci-fi film Primer! Directed by former mathematician Shane Carruth, Primer is about two bored engineers who accidentally create a time machine. The result is a minimalist but haunting movie that contains one of the most complex metaphysical puzzles in any movie in years, raising challenging questions on identity, time, and causality. Please join fellow members of the Philosophy Department for a great discussion after the movie!
