Genetic Drift

December 2024 Issue

Genetic Drift investigates the movement of genetic information across generations and its essential role in shaping the diversity of life. By exploring the interplay between genetic evolution and environmental influence (epigenetics), this program highlights how these forces drive adaptation and transformation. As the final issue of the year, it showcases films from diverse perspectives and forms—spanning personal narratives, experimental approaches, and scientific insights—celebrating the complexity and interconnectedness of evolution and human experience.

Genetic drift is the process by which genetic traits change over generations due to chance, rather than selection, influencing diversity and shaping evolution, especially in small populations.
