The Sci-Fi Film Series is your chance to see great and classic Sci-Fi films on the big screen! Join us at the Latchis Theater to watch this month’s film, Ex Machina!

Caleb Smith (Domhnall Gleeson), a programmer at an internet-search giant, wins a competition to spend a week at the private mountain estate of the company’s brilliant and reclusive CEO, Nathan Bateman (Oscar Isaac). Upon his arrival, Caleb learns that Nathan has chosen him to be the human component in a Turing Test—charging him with evaluating the capabilities, and ultimately the consciousness, of Nathan’s latest experiment in artificial intelligence. That experiment is Ava (Alicia Vikander), a breathtaking A.I. whose emotional intelligence proves more sophisticated––and more deceptive––than the two men could have imagined.

Attendees are invited to stay afterward for a discussion about the film. Admission by donation.

The series is presented by Brooks Memorial Library and the Latchis Theater. Sponsored by the Friends of Brooks Memorial Library.
