A cerebral, visually striking documentary that uses a preserved mammoth discovery to explore the philosophical and ethical implications of genetic resurrection and humanity's relationship with extinction.

A well-preserved mammoth carcass is found in the remote New Siberian Islands in the Arctic Ocean, opening up the possibility of a world-changing “Jurassic Park” moment in genetics.
