Lab-Life is a feature-length documentary about an increasingly influential yet unknown tribe: the laboratory people. It is a portrait of the daily life in some of the world's leading laboratories in the fields of nanotechnology, genetics and brain research. The film Lab-Life will follow a unique experiment in which social scientists confront their colleagues of the technological sciences with the challenges involved in their research. ‘Lab-Life' will focus on the tension between high revolutionary objectives and everyday human values. 

‘Lab-Life' is the follow-up to Frank Theys' critically acclaimed 2006 documentary trilogy "Technocalyps".
