What happens due to human obsession with control and immortality?
Evolution by Eliott Hourlier is a beautifully haunting dystopian tale—and at the same time, a chilling prediction of where humanity’s obsession with control and immortality could lead. It forces the viewer to ask: What happens when we replace survival with machinery but forget the heart? Is that evolution… or extinction?
Technically, the film is well-crafted, with a consistent visual style and narrative depth. What stands out is how effortlessly it raises philosophical questions about nature, memory, and what it truly means to be alive. It’s not just a sci-fi piece—it’s a reflection on our future.
One of those rare films that leaves you sitting in silence afterward… Well done.
