Overview
An extraordinarily beautiful and simple science film about the history of biological ideas that shows how they expanded as technology improved. Filmed in museums and in the Cambridge University labs where Whitehead had been a student, THE PERCEPTION OF LIFE was filmed through microscopes used by scientists from the 17th to the 20th centuries, including the electron microscope in the MRC unit where Francis Crick and James Watson discovered the structure of DNA.
Directed by Peter Whitehead, June Goodfield
