Screening of the documentary "Blame"

Screening of the documentary "Blame" to mark the seventh edition of #LabMeCrazy! Science Film Festival. The documentary will be shown in its original version with subtitles.

Synopsis of the documentary:
Blame, directed by Christian Frei, is an incisive documentary that analyzes the COVID-19 pandemic from the perspective of three scientists who had warned in advance about the arrival of a health crisis of this magnitude. As the virus spreads around the world, the film reveals that its greatest battle is being fought not only in laboratories, but also in the realm of public opinion, the media, and politics.

The documentary closely follows these researchers as they attempt to advance knowledge in an environment dominated by fear, urgency, and media pressure. They face an avalanche of misinformation, conspiracy theories, and simplistic narratives that seek immediate culprits, distorting the facts and undermining confidence in science. Frei humanizes the protagonists, showing their doubts, frustrations, and ethical commitment, and contrasts the slow and rigorous pace of research with the speed and toxicity of speech and media speech .

With an approach combines research and narrative tension, Blame becomes a documentary thriller that examines how truth can be manipulated in times of global crisis. The film offers a profound reflection on collective responsibility, the fragility of truth, and the role of science in a world marked by polarization and fake news.
