Description

Hollywood relies on Bruce Willis to save the world in Armageddon, but who are the real-life heroes seeking to save our civilisation from the next major asteroid impact?


One of Indiewire's six highlights of SXSW 2015, selected at Sheffield 2015 and raved by SoundOnSight as 'bombastic', Disaster Playground investigates future outer space catastrophes and the procedures in place to manage, assess, and minimalize the risks.

The film follows scientists leading the monitoring and deflection of hazardous Near Earth Objects and the real-life procedures in place in the event of an asteroid collision with the earth. From NASA and the SETI Institute to the White House and the United Nations, DISASTER PLAYGROUND follows the people who are responsible for protecting humanity from a potentially devastating asteroid impact.

Disaster Playground is the latest feature film by designer Nelly Ben Hayoun, an award-winning director, Wired Innovation fellow and designer of experiences at the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) Institute.

Supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council
