 \n\n	The reproductive behavior of sea creatures is central to these lyrica

 la Rossellini’s playfully stylized series Green Porno explores how the sta
 rfish\, shrimp\, squid\, and anchovy reproduce. The program also features 
 a rarity\, the first film by Roberto Rossellini (Isabella’s father)\, Fant
 asia Sottomarina (1940)\, which is about two fish in love that are threate
 ned by an octopus. he 70-minute program will be followed by a discussion w
