On Thursday, December 18, 2025, at 8:30 p.m. at the Astrée Chambéry cinema, the science outreach organization Science Action is hosting a science film screening featuring the documentary “Big Bang: The Call of the Origins.”
About the documentary:
What does science reveal about our origins? How can researchers today answer these age-old questions: Who are we, and where do we come from? Through the lens of astronomy, this documentary takes us on a journey to discover our most distant roots and explores the profound connection between the universe’s past and our own existence. A film that bridges science and philosophy, the personal and the universal.
Speaker:
The screening of the documentary will be followed by a discussion with Vincent Reverdy, a CNRS research fellow at the Annecy Laboratory of Particle Physics (LAPP).
ABOUT SCIENCE CAFÉS
Science Cafés allow the general public to discuss a wide range of topics, often related to current events, with experts and researchers in a friendly atmosphere. They are organized by the Science-Actions association, in collaboration with the University of Savoie Mont Blanc, the city of Chambéry, the Astrée cinema, and the MJC youth center in Chambéry.
These evenings are organized around the principle of a debate, which is based on questions asked by the audience to the speakers. They are neither lectures nor conferences given by a speaker. They allow everyone to form their own opinion on often complex subjects for which there is no simple or single solution. They also provide an opportunity to learn more about the research being carried out locally in the Chambéry area and neighboring regions by researchers, engineers, and doctors who volunteer their time to participate in our evenings.
Once a quarter, Cafés Science takes the form of a movie screening called Ciné Science. In this case, the film is shown at the Astrée cinema at 8:30 p.m. It is followed by a discussion with two or three experts on the film's theme.
