REALIVE
Immorality is only a matter of time... Love is forever.
From the extraordinary mind of acclaimed Spanish filmmaker Mateo Gil, screenwriter of
Vanilla Sky, The Sea Inside, Thesis and director of Blackthorn, comes a provocative reflection
on immortality where the emphasis rests on the emotional and psychological ramifications of
re-animating the dead.
Seventy years after being diagnosed with terminal cancer, Marc becomes the first resuscitated
cryogenic body in history as part of Project Lazarus. But readjusting to life as a human lab rat in an
alien and antiseptic future proves difficult and the idyllic existence he dreamed of before dying
seems unattainable in this modern and heartfelt spin on Frankenstein.
