ĊineXjenza: Icarus
Russia’s 4-year ban, due to the biggest scandal in sports history, is exposed by Dr. Rodchenkov in this award-winning documentary.
In this hidden Russian conspiracy, the Russians were fueling themselves with performance enhancer drugs under the head of the Russian anti-doping laboratory’s own watch during the Olympics. The doctor claims that this was ordered as well as supervised by the country’s leaders, Vladimir Putin’s name was put in the picture. The title of this film is a reference to the tale of Daedalus and Icarus but has a more geopolitical and international aspect.
Joanna Camilleri, who is a representative of NADO and a sports presenter, will be leading the main discussion after the film. Free of charge refreshments and wine will be provided free of charge.
ĊineXjenza is supported by the Tiskopri project. It is run by the Malta Chamber of Scientists, in collaboration with Spazju Kreattiv and S-Cubed.
Tickets are free, but booking is required.
