seed hunter at bell museum tonight

Tonight brings us all the third event in a partnership between Take-Up productions and the Bell Museum for their Thursday night film series about collectors:
Australian scientist Ken Street, a real life version of Indiana Jones, and his team of ‘gene detectives’ hunt for the genetic traits that allow crops to withstand the impact of 21st-century global warming. The film traces his efforts from Syriah to the Arctic Circle, where he deposits his bounty of seed in the newly-constructed seed bank known as the 'doomsday vault.'
Film starts at 7.  Tix are $5.
