SUMMARY:The Resurrection Quest
DESCRIPTION:121 min | English with subtitles | United States\, China\, Germany\, Kenya\, Russia\, Singapore\, UAE \nBlending science with emotional depth\, this documentary is a cinematic essay on our relationship with life\, death\, and the illusions of control. Spanning seven countries\, it explores humanity’s audacious pursuit of one of the most radical scientific frontiers of our time: the reversal of extinction. Is de-extinction hubris\, or hope? \nFrom cloning pets and engineering extinct birds to reviving ancient ecosystems\, the film offers an intimate\, urgent look at the dream of second chances\, and its consequences. At the heart of the films lies the concept of Samsara; a cyclical journey through grief\, hope\, death\, and renewal. As species vanish and ecosystems unravel\, the film follows scientists and conservationists chasing what was lost\, be it a beloved dog\, an extinct pigeon\, the last northern white rhinos\, or even a gene-edited\, cold-resistant elephant standing in for the woolly mammoth. But beneath the technology lie harder questions still: who decides which species return\, and who gets access to the tools that bring them back? \nCredits:\nCommissioning Editor: C. N.
