About this event

Adults: 18 and up. Join us and watch Silent Running as part of our celebration of space and this year's One Book, One Chicago selection Orbital. When Earth is so overdeveloped that plants can no longer survive, giant greenhouses are launched into orbit carrying samples of the world's dying forests. Then Government decides they are too expensive to maintain, but one committed crew member is determined to save them. © Universal Pictures | 89 minutes | Rated G Refreshments and snacks will be served. Community Cinema is at a branch near you! Check out hundreds of other screenings at libraries across Chicago. Accessibility English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing will be available for this screening. This event is part of the 2026 One Book, One Chicago season, exploring the book Orbital by Samatha Harvey.
