I Am Human

Streaming video - 2019

By 2029, scientists predict that approximately one million people will have implantable technology in their brains. This film follows the jaw-dropping, awe-inspiring journeys of three early pioneers - Bill, Anne, and Stephen. As these unlikely cyborgs grapple with the realities of their implantable brain technology, scientists face pressing technical and ethical quandaries: will the same technology that heals the sick soon lead to super human abilities, telepathic communication, and cognitive enhancement? From the research lab to the operating table, I AM HUMAN follows humanity’s quiet march down a new evolutionary path, unpacking the emerging complexity and real world possibilities of a technology that challenges the very essence of what... it means to be human.
