“2020: A Pandemic Odyssey Or, How I Got Stanley Kubrick Out Of My (Solar) System Once And For All ” by Roger Copeland
Scholar and filmmaker Roger Copeland presents a re-imagining of Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey, set in the annus horribilis of 2020, a year that began with a pandemic and ended with a monolith mysteriously appearing in the Utah desert. We witness these preternatural events from an unearthly vantage point: that of a female astronaut who has been aboard the International Space Station since the fall of 2019. As she prepares for the impending voyage home, she fears she may be returning to “a completely different planet.”
The director will be on hand for Q&A after the screening.
