 \n\n	Introduced by geneticist Christopher Mason \n\n\n	Dir. Claire Denis. 
 2018\, 110 mins. DCP. With Robert Pattinson\, Juliette Binoche\, André Ben
 jamin\, Mia Goth. Visionary French director Claire Denis’s English-languag
 e debut High Life stars Robert Pattinson as a convicted felon who\, togeth
 er with fellow death-row prisoners fitting into roles like doctor (Juliett
 e Binoche) and gardener (André Benjamin)\, is cast into the void of outer 
 space on a hopeless government mission. Unfolding in a stream of flashback
 s\, the film gradually reveals how the ship’s crew implode under the menta
 l and physical strain of their circumstances. Imbued with a concentration 
 of time and action rarely achieved in cinema\, Denis’s film is grounded in
  the primal and physical: the imprisoning of the body\, the regulation of 
 its functions and desires\, the formation of relationships of kith and kin
  between crew members\, and the daily routine of living even without hope 
 of escape. Before the screening of High Life\, geneticist Christopher Maso
 n from Weill Cornell Medicine will speak about his research into how long-
 term space travel changes the body. \n\n\n	Christopher Mason is Associate 
 Professor of Physiology and Biophysics at Weill Cornell Medicine. His labo
 ratory develops and deploys new biochemical and computational methods in f
 unctional genomics to elucidate the genetic basis of human disease and hum
 an physiology. Dr. Mason also works with NASA to help establish the molecu
 lar foundations and genetic defenses for enabling long-term human spacefli
 ght. He is a contributor to the 500 Year Plan\, a long-term survival plan 
 for Earth’s inhabitants. Dr. Mason was a principal investigator on The Twi
 ns Study which studied differences between astronomers Scott and Mark Kell
 y\, one of whom lived on Earth while the other lived in space for a year. 
 Dr. Mason was named as one of the “Brilliant Ten” Scientists by Popular Sc
 ience\, has received the NIH’s Transformative R01 Award\, the NASA Group A
 chievement Award\, the Pershing Square Sohn Cancer Research Alliance Young
  Investigator award\, the WorldQuant Foundation Scholar Award\, and many m
 ore. \n\n\n	Order tickets ($25) for screening + exhibition access before/a
