Scientific paper

There is a great need to present and explain science to the general public. The movie entitled "When things get small" about Nanoscience, is aimed at the general, not necessarily scientifically literate, public. This is done through the use of humor, analogies and entertainment in general. This creative collaboration arose from a joint project between a scientist, a TV produce and an actor. We will discuss some of the pitfalls in making scientific movies and an attempt at correcting these. This movie has been shown many times on TV, had several major showings at several venues world wide, is downloadable from the web and has won two Tellys (a major TV award).
