The School of Literature, Communication, and Culture presents the 2008 Science Fiction Film Series.
Blade Runner (Ridley Scott, 1982)
Deckard is a Blade Runner, a police man of the future who hunts down and terminates replicants, artificially created humans. He wants to get out of the force, but is drawn back in when 6 "skin jobs", a slang term for replicants, hijack a ship back to Earth. The city that Deckard must search for his prey is a huge, sprawling, bleak vision of the future. This film questions what it is to be human, and why life is so precious.
These screenings are free and open to everyone at Georgia Tech.
