Future Science – Das Ende der Tierversuche?

FUTURE SCIENCE is a film about one of the most profound transformations in modern science—the move away from animal testing. A new generation of technologies now makes it possible to simulate the human body in unprecedented ways. This opens up new paths to understand diseases more precisely, develop safer medications, and assess the toxicological safety of chemicals and everyday products more reliably.

The film raises crucial questions: How does the billion-dollar system of animal testing work—one that extends far beyond medicine? And who has an interest in maintaining this standard, even as it faces strong scientific and ethical criticism?

FUTURE SCIENCE confronts the scientific and economic mechanisms of the old system with the pioneers who are advancing more humane research through multi-organ chips, 3D bioprinting, and AI. It is a journey to the heart of a scientific revolution, making the immense potential of these methods for health and everyday safety tangible.

Because the future of research has already begun.
