Join us for a special screening of Ekaterina Eremenko's latest film “The Discrete Charm of Geometry”.

This film revolves around the lives of a team of mathematicians of the Collaborative Research Center “Discretization in Geometry and Dynamics”, coordinated by Prof. Bobenko. The excitement of discovery, hope and disappointment, competition and recognition are shown from an infinitely close distance. Akin to the scientists’ search for the right discretization of continuum, this film itself is composed of fragments – individual characters of different ages, temperaments and scientific approaches – which form a single continuous melody. It is a unique and unprecedented dive into the unknown world of mathematicians.

 

The Berlin Mathematical School will host the film screening on 15 February at Urania in Berlin. Entry is free; there will be a Q&A session with Eremenko and Bobenko at the end of the film.

“The Discrete Charm of Geometry” written and directed by Ekaterina Eremenko will be shown
at 5 pm on Monday 15 February 2016
at Urania, An der Urania 17, 10787 Berlin, Kleistsaal

We look forward to seeing you there!
