About This Movie

Lone Frank, the Danish journalist and neurobiologist, uses her own genetic map to unravel the threads of her family's history, pondering big questions about nature vs. nurture. The pacing feels contemplative, almost meditative at times, as it shifts between personal anecdotes and broader scientific insights. There’s an intimate atmosphere throughout, where the personal meets the universal. The film raises ethical dilemmas around genetic determinism and explores whether we are slaves to our genes. What really stands out is the way it combines scientific inquiry with a personal journey, making it both informative and reflective.
