What's the First Story?

The new Sci Fi epic Dune is one of the year's biggest releases, and one of the most anticipated science fiction films in years. At Rebel Wisdom we are taking this opportunity to ask some deeper questions, including what is the meaning of Sci Fi? And what are the stories we are choosing to tell saying about us, who we are, and who we want to be?

This is a discussion delving into these questions with the host of the Sci Fi podcast, and big fan of Rebel Wisdom, Damien Walter. He talks about how sci fi reworks the timeless stories of our core mythologies, reworking spiritual and religious truths for new secular audiences.

We will be hosting a conversation on Sci Fi and more with Damien in our Digital Campfire on Monday 1st November, so if you'd like to join that, sign up as a Rebel Wisdom member: https://rebelwisdom.co.uk/plans
