Director: Katie Dellamaggiore Run Time: 90 min. Release Year: 2024
An intimate portrait of life in Green Bank, West Virginia, home to the world’s most sensitive radio telescope and the only U.S. town where Wi-Fi and cell phones are banned. In this radio-quiet community, scientists search for signs of extraterrestrial life while residents share everyday moments of joy and loss. But when government defunding threatens the telescope’s future, the town must consider which connections matter most.
