Two tales; one set in hellish Siberia, the other in the modern Western world. One iIntriguing, the other not so much. Not bad by any means. A fascinating tale about where synthetic biology may take us.

This is a fascinating documentary about the mammoth ivory trade and the field of genetic engineering and cloning.

The film follows both genetic scientistsThis is a fascinating documentary about the mammoth ivory trade and the field of genetic engineering and cloning. It technically came out in 2018 but there was no way for me to see it until this year. The film follows both genetic scientists and a group of mammoth hunters who look for frozen remains in northern Siberia. This film covers many topics including survival, the resurrection of extinct species and even eugenics. The two sides of the film, the hunters and the scientists, don’t always mix well and the film can kinda drag sometimes as a result, but there were so many amazing moments in this movie that excited me more than any blockbuster I saw this year that I don’t dare reveal here. It is also very scary and raises many ethical questions. It’s like a real-life Jurassic Park. Should we look more into this kind of technology or should we not open Pandora’s Box? It makes you think. I recommend checking this one out if you like science or survival stories. I think you’ll enjoy it. I sure did, and I can’t wait to own a pet mammoth some day! Expand
