By 2029, scientists predict that approximately one million people will have implantable technology in their brains. I AM HUMAN follows humanity's quiet march down a new evolutionary path through the jaw-dropping journeys of three of the earliest real-world pioneers - Bill, Anne, and Stephen. Bill, paralyzed in a biking accident, enrolls in a mysterious research study in hopes to regain movement, while Anne, an artist with Parkinson's, and Stephen, a witty blind retiree, reluctantly explore invasive procedures to regain their independence. As the subjects grapple with the realities of their implantable brain technology, scientists face pressing technical and ethical quandaries: will the same technology that heals the sick soon lead to super human abilities, telepathic communication, and cognitive enhancement? From the research lab to the operating table, I AM HUMAN unpacks the emerging complexity and real world possibilities of a technology that challenges the very essence of what it means to be human.
