Arrival: Film and Discussion

​Arrival (2016) is an Academy Award-winning film that explores themes of language, time and determinism. Twelve alien spacecraft arrive on Earth, and a linguistics professor (Dr. Louise Banks, played by Amy Adams) must learn to communicate with them before tensions provoked by the unknown cause the humans to attack.

​The film will be followed by a discussion facilitated by Danielle Martin, MA. Danielle is a predoctoral psychology intern at Vantage Point Center for Psychotherapy in Sacramento. She also serves as a current board member for the Sacramento Psychoanalytic Society.
