You, Forever

  • Run time: 15 min
  • Premiere: 2023. December 9.

You, Forever is a short hybrid film that incorporates documentary and dark comedy fantasy fiction. Robert Ettinger, 'the father of cryonics,' speaks of his life’s work while his 'patients' experience an unnatural existence in suspended animation. The film is at once a piece of living (or un-living) history, and a surrealist comedy of waiting for the unknown. It explores some of humanity’s fascinating responses to fear, loss and grief while offering a potential for hope. In this way, the tale of an intelligent, eccentric and lonely old man becomes a story relatable to everyone.
