Creation is a 2009 British biographical drama film about Charles Darwin's relationship with his wife Emma and his memory of their eldest daughter Annie, as he struggles to write On the Origin of Species. The film, directed by Jon Amiel and starring real life couple Paul Bettany and Jennifer Connelly as Charles and Emma Darwin, is a partly biographical, partly fictionalised account, based on Randal Keynes's Darwin biography Annie's Box.

Naturalist Charles Darwin struggles to find a balance between his revolutionary theories on evolution and the relationship with his religious wife, whose faith contradicts his work.

This film thus is a perfect foil to end our week long CounterCulture film festival - with a rationalist who stood against the absurdity of religion and blind faith.

This is aprt of the 5 day CounterCulture film festival at Lamakaan from Wed-Sun 1-5 Jul.

All are welcome.
