Explore how language shapes our perception of reality through Denis Villeneuve's compelling film about a linguist tasked with deciphering an alien language. We'll discuss how "Arrival" brilliantly illustrates the profound connection between language and worldview, making it perfect for our month focusing on translation.
Together we'll explore questions like:
- How does the language we speak influence how we think?
- What can we learn about another culture by learning its language?
- How do we bridge communication gaps across vastly different cultures?
Join us for this fascinating conversation about language, translation challenges, and cross-cultural understanding.
🎥 We'll watch the film together, and then have a short discussion afterward.
Light snacks and beverages will be provided
