SPRING MOVIE MATINEE - Arrival
Join the PLC and Dr. Jed Sekoff for a screening and discussion of the Oscar-nominated film, Arrival, a science fiction drama exploring communication with extraterrestrial intelligence. Following the screening, Dr. Sekoff will discuss the film’s themes through a psychoanalytic lens, including “otherness” (and our response to it) and our relation to time, memory, and loss. Popcorn will be served.
Jed Sekoff, Ph.D., is a personal and supervising psychoanalyst at PINC, and on the faculties of SFCP and the Wright Institute. His writing, teaching, and presentations interweave clinical theory, the arts, social history, and politics. His most recent paper is “Precious Bodily Fluids: The Secretory Imagination from Shakespeare to Strangelove.”
This event is for the general public and mental health professionals of all levels.
No refunds will be allowed for this event.
