The International Science Film Festival just kicked off its second edition in Thrissur, and it’s a breath of fresh air! Dr. M.P. Parameswaran really hit the nail on the head during the inauguration - science shouldn't be about just churning out products or chasing massive paychecks; it’s about figuring out how we can all live better, happier lives. It’s so refreshing to hear a top scientist tell kids that money isn’t the ultimate goal. Plus, the district is planning to produce 100 science films locally by next year! Imagine students and teachers getting trained to tell their own science stories. With screenings at Sree Theatre and Vijnan Sagar, it’s a great way to make complex ideas accessible. We need more of this vibe - science for the soul, not just the wallet. #Science #Education #Culture
