HUMAN NATURE Truth and Justice

CRISPR is the biggest revolution of the century, a biological breakthrough that brings with it exciting and provocative implications for the future of science and humanity. HUMAN NATURE explores the history of gene therapy, the incredible scientific discovery of CRISPR and the personal effects genetic engineering has on families. This vital and engaging documentary investigates the complexities of CRISPR, exploring the existential questions it raises: how will it affect human evolution or change our relationship with nature?

The potential is endless and inspiring: lives saved, diseases cured. While CRISPR’s meaning for the future of humanity is unknown, there is no doubt you’ll leave the theater thinking and discussing how the CRISPR revolution has made this a whole new world.
