    • Synopsis
    • From the extraordinary mind of acclaimed Spanish filmmaker Mateo Gil, screenwriter of VANILLA SKY, THE SEA INSIDE, THESIS and director of BLACKTHORN, comes a provocative reflection on immortality where the emphasis rests on the emotional and psychological ramifications of reanimating the dead. Seventy years after being diagnosed with terminal cancer, Marc becomes the first resuscitated cryogenic body in history as part of Project Lazarus. But readjusting to life as a human lab rat in an alien and antiseptic future proves difficult and the idyllic existence he dreamed of before dying seems unattainable in this modern and heartfelt spin on FRANKENSTEIN.
