50/50 A Case Study

Invited

Filmmakers Barry Levinson, Ted Bogosian, and Tom Fontana screen and discuss an excerpt of their “hybrid” film, 50/50, an experimental film that details one woman’s harrowing journey through the limits of human reproduction in the age of genetic engineering. 50/50 marks a new development in motion picture storytelling. Using a unique hybrid format, the filmmakers were able to explore a controversial, socially conscious story at the intersection of fact and fiction.
