Trivia:

Writer Jim Fitzpatrick came-up with the original concept when he saw his son JJ (2 years-old at the time) pick up a plastic t-ball, place it on the T-stand and swing. This led Fitzpatrick to the notion that the 90% of our neocortex (brain) that we don't use, is actually stored genetic memory, from every ancestor before us.

Awe Inspiring

It is very thought provoking. I think the need for "Science Fiction" which many seem to criticise can ultimately be inspiring, and medically creative for future generations remedies.

For those who criticised the writing, I think people missed the point. Each individual has their own motives and driving forces, whether you like them or not. This is simply a blue print for alternative methods of research and medicine. And I love the leap of faith/fiction the writer took to reach out to those that have passed on. The writer obviously loved someone very deeply, that is no longer with us.

This is not mind numbing sci fi. This is the kind of film that reminds you why films were so much more interesting back in the day before most of them relied upon digital special effects. This is a sweet, sad film about a time where people are searching for an answer to all of the bad things going on in the world. You get my vote for anything positive.
