When global warming triggers the onset of a new Ice Age, tornadoes flatten Los Angeles, a tidal wave engulfs New York City and the entire Northern Hemisphere begins to freeze solid. Now, climatologist Jack Hall (Dennis Quaid), his son Sam (Jake Gyllenhaal) and a small band of survivors must ride out the growing superstorm and stay alive in the face of an enemy more powerful and relentless than any they've ever encountered: Mother Nature!
The Day After Tomorrow was a summer box office smash that was ridiculed by critics and scientists alike. Two decades later, it remains one of the few climate change films ever released by Hollywood. Join us for a fun and educational evening with a discussion and a game of Fact or Fiction following the screening.
This series is presented in partnership with the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, Institute for Sustainability and Resilience, Better Tomorrow Speaker Series, Hawaiʻi State Climate Commission.
