Popoli Highlights: GENESIS 2.0
GENESIS 2.0
Directed by: Christian Frei, Maxim Arbugaev (Switzerland, 2018, 113’)
On the remote New Siberian Islands in the Arctic Ocean, hunters are searching for the tusks of extinct mammoths. The price for white gold has never been so high. The tusk hunters find a surprisingly well-preserved mammoth carcass. Such finds are magnets for high-tech genetic scientists. They want to bring the extinct woolly mammoth back to life à la Jurassic Park. Resurrecting the mammoth is a first manifestation of the next great technological revolution. Man becomes Creator. Genesis two point zero.
