Where do you draw the line between ethics and scientific progress, and can one still break new ground without taking risks? Julia (Emelia Hansson) and Rebecca (Sandra Redlaff) hardly have time to ponder such questions. As young scientists with a friend’s life on the line they throw caution to the wind and hack Erik’s genetic code in hopes of curing an otherwise fatal illness. Before long Erik (Rikard Björk) recovers, but superhuman results are only the first of many side effects. A smart, Swedish sci-fi written and directed by Andreas Climent and André Hedetoft, Origin (Bieffekterna) tweaks a familiar set-up by centering its thematic preoccupations and conflict around recognizable relationships. With believable performances from a solid cast Origin ensures its most poignant query does not...
