On the one hand, there are optimistic views of scientific development, on the other, there are ethical warnings, especially when a film portrays consequences for humanity and the planet; a vision, in which we crossed the boundaries and fundamentally change the nature of living organisms either by changing their genetic information, or by implanting nanotechnologies.
