A dramatic allegory about the spiritual implications of DNA, created as 3D animation. Our Creative Purpose. The most profound events of our time have been, without doubt, the discovery of DNA and the completion of the human genome project. This has resulted in a great source of information based on DNA sequences. Yet however useful this knowledge is in understanding health and disease, it remains a puzzle how the codes in
our genomes work to drive our spirits. Oddly, this most important cultural aspect of DNA - how it will ultimately impact on our concept of God or any higher power - is not being fully discussed. Part of the reason for our silence may be that we have no shared emotional or visual vocabulary on the subject We lack a common language. This film offers itself as a reference point for creative discussion about the spiritual implications of DNA. It is not intended to provide a full answer to this puzzle, but hopes to be instrumental in setting us all on a fresh path of thinking about these eternal questions. As the secrets of life unfold with
the genome project, This Immortal Coil takes a radical look at our ideas about God, creation, and human destiny. This dramatic musical animation follows Adam and Eve's epic pursuit of knowledge, and its god-like powers, from primeval Eden to the present age. It tells, too, of man’s deep yearning to return to paradise, a true home, which is long lost. This is a very human story about two fallible beings who, at once vast in their egos and frail in their humanity, chase an impossible goal. We ask, what will they do when they discover the science of their genesis? How will they feel on learning that the architect of their lives is their
own DNA the serpent within, which created them, drove them with their own desires, and lures them ever onward? As DNA is in all living things, will they think it is God? Finally, Adam and Eve face the all-important question: 'is there a spiritual way in this world of science and technology?’ We see that the answer is yes. A BEAUTIFUL BOOK and DVD We are producing a gorgeous illuminated Book to accompany the DVD of the film. This is because we want the movie to be something you can also hold and treasure. FABULOUS TAPESTRIES You can commission a tapestry to be made by a British prisoner based on designs from the film. The charity Fine
Cell Work has made it possible, for the first time in British prisons, for inmates to earn money while inside. Making your tapestry gives prisoners a valuable new skill, a way to gain self-esteem, and the power to provide some money for their families, and for their own future.
