Description
From the decadence of the 80s to the cold, futuristic realm of biotech, “Human Without End” explores the coming age of the “augmented human,” an imminent technological revolution with uncertain consequences for our future. At the center of this speculative reality is the dreary figure of Norman Klein.
Over a period of 50 years, Norman witnesses the rise of Jay Cosberg, a tech billionaire who wants to discover the secret for eternal life. Their fates become intertwined through Norman’s cousin, Juliette, who becomes Jay Cosberg’s muse and marries him. Norman then becomes the unwilling witness to the couple’s history in which the lines between biology, love and technology begin to blur.
