Carl Sagan: We are Made of Star Stuff at the Central Park Conservancy Film Festival

From Academy Award®–nominated director Nanette Burstein and producer Seth MacFarlane, Carl Sagan: We Are Made of Star Stuff is an intimate portrait of the visionary astronomer, author, and television star whose groundbreaking ideas transformed our understanding of the cosmos and human existence. With unprecedented access to his extensive personal archive, the film explores Sagan’s cosmic love story with partner Ann Druyan and his evolution as a father, husband, and scientist—spearheading the Voyager Golden Record, defending science, protecting our planet, and probing the eternal question: Is anybody else out there?

This screening is part of the 2026 Central Park Conservancy Film Festival, presented by National Geographic.
