Come join us on Zoom for a night of film with our Page to Screen event, where we watch movies based upon sci-fi, fantasy, and horror novels! For fans who have read the book, feel free to engage in a comparative discussion after the film. If you haven't read the book, that's ok too - stick around to discuss the film and geek out!
Join us this month as we watch the film "Blade Runner" based upon the novel "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" by Philip K. Dick:
"In the early twenty-first century, the Tyrell Corporation, during what was called the Nexus phase, developed robots, called "replicants", that were supposed to aid society, the replicants which looked and acted like humans. When the superhuman generation Nexus 6 replicants, used for dangerous off-Earth endeavors, began a mutiny on an off-Earth colony, replicants became illegal on Earth. Police units, called "blade runners", have the job of destroying - or in their parlance "retiring" - any replicant that makes its way back to or created on Earth, with anyone convicted of aiding or assisting a replicant being sentenced to death. It's now November, 2019 in Los Angeles, California. Rick Deckard, a former blade runner, is called out of retirement when four known replicants, most combat models, have made their way back to Earth, with their leader being Roy Batty."
