Kids’ Film Program: “The Adventures of Zack and Molly”

“The Adventures of Zack and Molly” is a new, three-part video series about an unlikely duo exploring the deep ocean produced by Dr. Samantha Joye, UGA Athletic Association Professor of Arts and Sciences and professor of marine sciences, and cartoonist and filmmaker Jim Toomey. It follows the story of a young man who is more interested in the small world of his smartphone than the larger world around him. Zack’s online request for a roommate is answered by Molly, a tech-savvy Dumbo Octopus on a mission to tell the world about the importance of the deep ocean. Stick around after the film for a short Q+A with Joye, fun gallery activities and an ocean-inspired art project. Films are generously sponsored by University of Georgia Parents Leadership Council.
