Science on Screen: Phantom Thread at FilmScene

  • FilmScene - The Chauncey 404 East College Street Iowa City, IA, 52240 (map)

Join the Prairie States Mushroom Club and FilmScene for a Science on Screen event showcasing Paul Thomas Anderson’s Phantom Thread with the pre-show presentation “Thread Carefully: Navigating Edible and Poisonous Fungi in Iowa”

The world of fungi is often shrouded in mycophobia, an irrational fear of mushrooms often rooted in cultural tradition rather than scientific reality. Amanda Flaata, Chair of the Arts Committee, will explore common myths that have led to such misunderstandings and establish best practices for the safe foraging of mushrooms in Iowa.
