Fixed: The Scienc/Fiction of Human Enhancement
ReelAbilities Film Festival | Greater DC 2015
Wednesday, April 29 | Bethlehem Lutheran Church | 7:00pm

From bionic limbs and neural implants to prenatal screenings researchers around the world are developing technologies to "fix" or enhance the human body. These developments not only challenge the concept of disability, but of what it means to be fundamentally be a human in the 21st century. Does a man with no legs truly have a "disability" when he can run faster than most people in the world? What does it mean to be "normal" in a world where increasing numbers of people turn to "smart drugs" to get ahead each day? Fixed looks at the drive to be "better than human" and the radical technological innovations that may make it possible. With interviews with world-renowned experts and scholars and cameo performances by some of the world's leading integrated dance companies, Fixed is a comprehensive look at the fascinating science of human enhancementand its practical and philosophical implications.

Directed by Regan Brashear / USA, 2013 / English / 60 min
