We’re excited to present Human Race to the Melbourne audience tonight.

Ahead of the screening, film critic Peter Krausz from Movie Metropolis shared these kind words about the film:

“The Human Race explores the genetic blueprint of humanity through the eyes and research of a prominent Danish scientist. The film combines dazzling visual effects, interviews, entertaining and scholarly information, as well as a lot to ponder about the impact on our mental illness understanding. The mapping of over 5,000 ancient humans offers much food for thought. An erudite, thought-provoking, documentary.”

Om Human Race: Eske Willerslev har en ambition om at bygge verdens største samling af forhistorisk menneskelig arvemasse. Som samlingen vokser, tvinges han til at konfrontere spøgelserne i sin egen fortid. Filmen er en intim skildring af en stærk, konkurrencepræget videnskabsmand og hans mål om at sætte sit præg på menneskehedens historie og fremtid. Men det er samtidig en hjertevarm historie om en mand, der altid har følt sig anderledes og kæmpet for at passe ind – en kamp, som hans videnskabelige projekt omsider tvinger ham til at konfrontere.

The CPH:DOX Festival is coming to an end. There are still a few tickets left for the screening Cinemateket on Monday. Screening at Big Bio in Nordhavn has sold out.

“Human Race explores some of humanity’s most pressing questions throughout history. What makes us who we are? And why are we the way we are? It isn’t, however, a traditional science movie. The film offers an intimate, unflinching and often humorous portrait of maverick scientist Eske Willerslev, adding depth to the broader scientific context and profound insights to our understanding of who we are.”
Niklas Engstrøm, Artistic Director of CPH:DOX
