The Genetic Revolution

2018. 1 Hour Special Technologies like CRISPR are making it possible to quickly and cheaply change the DNA of all living things, including humans. Genes can be edited almost as easily as words on a computer screen. Brilliant scientists from across the globe are using these powerful new gene-editing technologies in ways once thought unimaginable. This new ability to alter our DNA holds the promise of curing disease … saving threatened species … solving the problem of world hunger … maybe even obtaining human perfection. But will the promise be fulfilled? CBC.  Genetic Revolution has won a Golden Sheaf Award in the Documentary Science/Nature/Technology category at the Yorkton Film Festival!
