Antarctica

Antartica – Screening on Wednesday November 12 at 7:00pm!

This screening is SOLD OUT!

Join Anton Ptushkin in person for a special charity screening of his travel documentary “Antarctica”, followed by an exclusive Q&A session. Anton Ptushkin embarks on a special charity tour with his travel documentary Antarctica, which tells the story of Ukrainian polar scientists working at the remote Vernadsky Research Base.

This cinematic journey invites you to board the Noosfera icebreaker with Anton, cross the infamous Drake Passage, and experience the majesty of glaciers and the charm of penguins on the big screen. You’ll discover why researchers spend an entire year in isolation, what scientific missions they undertake — and why they need a crossbow to do it.

*This screening is a rental, normal Mayfair prices do not apply.

*Please take note that doors open 30 minutes before showtimes. We encourage people to arrive early. We have a small box office, a small candy bar, and a single-screen cinema, meaning that when most of an audience shows up a few minutes before showtime, it causes a bottleneck. If possible, we appreciate you arriving a little bit early to pick out your seat and get your popcorn. Thanks for your help!

Anton Ptushkin’s travel film to the Ukrainian Antarctic station “Akademik Vernadsky.” It’s a story about people who study the planet’s future while living in conditions without shops, trees, or personal space. The film explores the challenges of the icy continent and everyday life at the station, the importance of climate observations, and why Ukraine is among the few countries with a full-fledged presence in Antarctica. It’s a story about science, melting glaciers, and, of course, penguins.
