What began with his mother reanimating frozen goldfish eventually leads a Buddhist scientist from Bangkok to believe it possible to cryo-preserve the brain of his two-year-old daughter who succumbed to cancer. We all grieve in our own way, why shouldn’t keeping fingers cryogenically crossed be one of them? The kid’s noggin is house in a lab in Arizona no doubt next to Walt Disney and Vivien Leigh. There are some seriously whacked-out decisions being made in this documentary and none more controversial than a scientist naming his son Matrix, now 15 and 100% on board with dad’s dream of regenerating sis. It would also be the crowning point of his career, an observation that brings a smile to the face of the boy wonder. Creepy in a meditative, scientific manner that tilts the film in an even more unsettling direction. (2018) — Scott Marks
