BEST SOCIAL AND HUMANITARIAN FILM - VastFilm Festival | BEST SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY FILM - Madonie Film Festival

Technology & Society • Media Stereotypes of Muslims • Islamophobia • Simulation Theory & AI • Intercultural, Interreligious, and Interfaith Dialogue • Religious Extremism • Boston Marathon Bombing

Program it. Predict it. Prevent it. An expert crew of computer scientists and religion scholars embark on a three-year project to apply computer simulation and modeling to find solutions to worldwide humanitarian crises. Called to action by the Boston Marathon Bombing and increasing religious extremist terrorist attacks in North America and Europe, the scientists develop cutting-edge technology at their headquarters in research centers in Boston and Virginia as well as at a Norwegian university. The team eventually travels to refugee camps in Lesvos, Greece, to understand and simulate connections between religious extremism and the refugee crisis. They use the powerful modeling and simulation methodology to develop policy recommendations for predicting and preventing religious radicalization and violence.

Video Librarian | Christopher Spicer
"For academic librarians, the film is well-suited to religious studies, political science, computer science, ethics, and sociology courses. It can also enhance media literacy discussions by showing how simulation can serve humanitarian, not just analytical, goals."
