A great film that delves into issues of science, ethics, epistemology, and
language is Mindwalk. It's about three people who walk around Mont St. Michel
and talk about Cartesian thought, the physics of an atom, ethical issues in
science, politics, systems theory, and the inbalance of the masculine and
feminine principles in Western society. It's very theoretical, but there are so
many layers to it that bright students will appreciate the "heady" conversation.
Even just a few clips from it will help spur discussion.
