Have you ever wondered about the little beasts lurking in the unexplored depths of Earth’s oceans? Filmmaker Eleanor Mortimer did and accompanied exploratory scientists eager to collect and name unknown species from the depths of the central Pacific, 4,700 meters below. As they uncover mesmerizing creatures and ecosystems thriving in darkness, a looming threat emerges: the prospect of deep-sea mining in this untouched wilderness. Weaving wonder with urgency, How Deep Is Your Love challenges us to balance the drive for resources with the intrinsic value of an ecosystem. (Eleanor Mortimer, 2025, DCP, 100 minutes)

This event will be held in the West Building Lecture Hall.
