Science Cinema Festival or a chance to love math Automatic translate

MOSCOW. On October 13, in the Russian universities, the premiere of "Literal Geometry" began screenings of science films as part of the FANK festival.

Enthusiasm for one’s work is always contagious. In relation to the rational and the eternal - especially. The festival of contemporary scientific cinema that has begun can be considered a successful attempt to introduce the generation of selfies to rich intellectual activity. The creators of several dozens of science films did not set out to load a heavy load of other people’s discoveries and destinies on the fragile minds of future Landau and Lomonosovs. To begin with, it is enough to demonstrate how gambling the process of solving a complex problem can be. Brilliant scientists in the film “Literal Geometry” by Ekaterina Eremenko are living people with ordinary emotions, dreams and ambitions, who are currently passionate about the problem of discreteness. The world that they perceive through the prism of mathematical formulas is harmonious and filled with feelings no less than the one that surrounds “normal” people. And recluses torn from real life with an alien gaze are a common myth for uninviting lazy people. Aerobatics demonstrated by Eremenko in “Sensual Mathematics” was repeated in the new picture. The experience of an excellent student of the Mechmath of Moscow State University, in a hungry 90s model and television presenter, graduates of the documentary film school in Munich, the head of her own film company helped intuitively choose the direction of scientific cinema, for which the future lies.

Each of the films presented in the program is about science, about love, about life, about knowledge. The plot palette allows you to forget about loneliness with the help of Alice’s robot, to think about the secrets of the universe, about nature, the connection with which is closer than it seems to fall in love with exact sciences.
