  • "Nocturnes" is a documentary about the ecological research of PhD candidate Mansi Mungee on sphinx moths in the Himalayas. The movie runs 1 hr. 22 min and has some subtitles. It is a beautiful, slow, immersive movie that requires patience and so we recommended it for ages 12+. It will be followed with a discussion led by UC Davis entomology graduate student Iris Quayle, who has done insect field research in Belize and Madagascar.
