Description:

Join the SESP Well-Being team for pizza and a screening of this groundbreaking film which explores the lessons we can learn from fungi. These incredible lifeforms may hold the key to solving some of humanity’s most urgent problems. With millions more species to discover, our journey into the secret world of fungi has only just begun.

Narrated by Björk, the film is about the ways that fungi have shaped life on Earth for over a billion years, and how we might partner with them to adapt to the radical change of our times. It features astonishing fungal time lapse photography. Much of this footage depicts aspects of fungal life that have never been captured in such high spatial and temporal resolution before.
