Now called “The Summerland Project” created by genius, Dr. Ellen Beckett and Paul Wesley (Ed Begley, Jr.) conveys the usage of modern day, existing technological. But, a public debate breaks out when Senator Thaddeus (Chris Ellis) announces his complete opposition to the project.
Based on Rob Merritt’s 2011 play, “The Summerland Project”, AMELIA 2.0 is the very first film to tap into the genre of trans-humanism. The belief that the human race can evolve and push limitations is captivated through the film’s struggle, fascination and advancements with today’s technology.
AMELIA 2.0 is an innovative film that combines romance with sci-fi, as it explores legal, religious and scientific world. Further, it allows Amelia to reflect on herself within her new body. Haunted by her peers’ question to her right to live at all, she begins to question who she was, who she is, and if she is even human at all.
It leaves us all wondering, “What really makes someone human anyway?”
