On the remote New Siberian Islands in the Arctic Ocean, hunters are
searching for the tusks of extinct mammoths. There is a gold rush
fever in the air. The price for white gold has never been so high. The
thawing permafrost not only releases precious ivory. The tusk hunters
find a surprisingly well-preserved mammoth carcass. Such finds are
magnets for high-tech genetic scientists. They want to bring the
extinct woolly mammoth back to life ŕ la “Jurassic Park”. Resurrecting
the mammoth is a first manifestation of the next great technological
revolution. Man becomes Creator. Genesis two point zero. |

An international jury overview the sections of short films coming from all over the world. We prefer documentaries which succeed in representing the complexity of reality and discover in a new way its sensible and perturbing aspects on the same time accentuating the ambivalent and enigmatic status of reality in avoiding sterotypes and simplifing conclusions.
