Description

NYC PREMIERE Many of those who called Boca Chica home don’t anymore. When Elon Musk’s SpaceX decided to build its 50-story rocket in the Texas town, it forced people away. Birds have been stopped in flight, and people who remained can no longer access the beaches they grew up visiting. Julien Elie’s dystopic sci-fi documentary is a warning for what happens when greed and ego seem to have no visible boundaries. - Bedatri D. Choudhury

The first screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Julien Elie.

All in-person screening venues provide sound amplification headphones upon request with venue management. IFC Center can also provide a T-Coil loop for compatible devices.
