Two rebellious young scientists are told by their employers to halt groundbreaking work that has seen them produce new creatures with medical benefits by splicing together the DNA from multiple organisms. They decide to continue their work secretly, but this time splicing in human genes.
The RiAus Film Club allows you to watch and discuss films with a science bent – everything from classics to moderns, features and documentaries, sci-fi and sci-fact and utopian or dystopian futures – and all in the comfort of the Science Exchange bar.
