April’s family screening celebrates Earth Month with a documentary that captures insects in extraordinary detail, revealing a world usually invisible to the human eye. Filmed over three years with custom-built macro cameras, Microcosmos follows ants, beetles, snails, butterflies, and other tiny creatures as they go about their daily lives in a meadow. Through music and amplified natural sounds, the film brings the miniature world of insects to life, balancing scientific insight with whimsy.
