Neutrinos go right through everything and are therefore difficult to detect. Scientists have come up with something to uncover these ghost particles anyway. In Japan, 1000 metres underground in a former mine, they built the Super-Kamiokande. A gigantic vat of pure water with 11,000 detectors. Filmmakers Hannie van den Bergh and Jan van den Berg filmed the hazard and spoke to scientists and villagers. While the residents mainly have their eyes on the visible mountains, trees and animals, the scientists look at invisible neutrinos, hoping to unravel the origin of the universe.

Screening of the poetic-philosophical docu Neutrino, the poet among elementary particles + follow-up discussion with Hannie van den Bergh, Jan van den Berg, neutrino expert Prof Dr Patrick Decowski (UvA) and moderator Prof Dr ing. Dave Blank.

This event is organised in cooperation with Concordia Cinema and Studium Generale UT.
