Dark Biosphere

One of humanity’s fundamental questions is the question of life. What is it? When did it begin? Does it exist only on our planet? It might seem that we already know quite a lot about it, yet it continues to surprise us.

Deep beneath the Earth’s crust, hundreds of metres below the surface, in total darkness, with no air and only trace amounts of water, within the pores and crevices of hard rock, scientists have discovered a vast diversity of microorganisms thriving in extreme conditions. We call these organisms extremophiles.

The film "Dark Biosphere" prompts us to reconsider not only the origin and evolution of life on Earth, but also its possible existence throughout the Universe.


A live presentation in Polish takes place before the screening.
