MPI-CBG turns into a film set for a feature length movie
A gripping, psychological thriller set in the world of genetic research begins shooting mid February at the MPI-CBG: 'Errors of the Human Body'.
It is the feature directorial debut of Eron Sheean, an Australian writer/director currently working in Germany, and was developed over the past five years in collaboration with the institute.
"Every breakthrough has a price" says the tagline of this movie. The MPI-CBG has continuously supported this project because it poses important questions: What happens when research ignores human emotional needs? What if science is divorced from the human, moral and ethical concerns broader society lives by?
The film stars Germany's Karoline Herfurth (Perfume: The Story of a Murderer, The Reader and We are the Night), Iceland's Tomas Lemarquis (Noi the Albino) and Canada's Michael Eklund in the lead role of Geoffrey Burton.
If you want to back this project (anything over 5 $ helps), check out the project's profile on the funding platform kickstarter.
