Arrival Time(2018)
Through Gotthard Günther's probing of American science fiction for the beginnings of a new metaphysics, Rickels folds out the Enlightenment vision of life after death as enrollment in continuing education programs on the outer planets.

But the looping of time cannot elide wishing upon the stars -- and our second nature as daydreamers keeps our No's to the grind of unmourning.In VOICEOVER, film material is recommended for watching while listening to the lecture. ...Arrival, Denis Villeneuve (2016)A free version of the film is not yet available online.
