16 Sunrises (16 levers de soleil) follows the six months journey of French astronaut Thomas Pesquet and his fellow astronauts in their lives on the International Space Station, 450 kilometers from Earth. As the space station revolves, they experience 16 sunrises each day, witnessing a planet that is constantly evolving. They capture spectacular footage of superstorms, cosmic phenomena, and life in zero-gravity, offering a stunning new perspective of home and our place in the universe. Can our planet adopt the same harmony as the nations that collaborate to operate the station?
16 Sunrises will be screened for the closing night of the San Francisco Green Film Festival. Director Pierre-Emmanuel Le Goff will be in attendance.
Launched in 2011, the San Francisco Green Film Festival is the West Coast’s leading event for films & discussions about people and the planet. SF Green Film Festival is dedicated to screening compelling environmental films; connecting audiences to filmmakers and experts; and sparking green ideas & actions.
