Living Forever: The Longevity Revolution
Kevin Perrott spends the film chasing the science of extending healthy human life, touring labs and interviewing the researchers pushing biotechnology, genetic research, therapeutic cloning, and stem-cell work toward that goal. Michael Rose, a biogerontologist, narrates and appears on camera to frame the state of the field, while Ray Kurzweil, Greg Fahy, and Terry Grossman each weigh in with their own approach to slowing or reversing aging, from cryopreservation research to supplement regimens aimed at metabolic repair. The film treats longevity science as a live contest between competing theories rather than a settled roadmap, showing where the evidence is strong and where it is still speculation. Ethical questions surface alongside the lab footage: what it would mean to significantly extend human lifespan, and who would get access first. Perrott's search doubles as a survey of the field's current toolkit, leaving the audience with a clearer sense of which longevity claims have research behind them and which remain aspirational.
