Official Selection at Fantasticfest, Eron Sheean's ERRORS OF THE HUMAN BODY dissects the moral dilemmas and consequences behind the world of bio-engeneering. Putting the entire scope of scientific progress under a microscope, this thriller, based more closely on science fact than fiction, begs the question: What is the cost of progress?
Obsessively struggling to develop a cure for a rare genetic ailment, which caused the death of his infant son, Geneticist Geoff Burton, played by Michael Eklund from The Call, is forced to relocate to an isolated research facility in Dresden, Germany. Completely consumed by his research, Burton is on the brink of discovery but soon realizes that his own work may bear more consequences than he previously thought.

ERRORS OF THE HUMAN BODY opens in select theaters on April 19 and will be available to watch on Cable VOD, SundanceNOW and other digital outlets (iTunes, Amazon Streaming, PS3 Playstation Unlimited, XBOX Zune, Google PLAY and YouTube).
Following divorce from his wife and the loss of his son to a rare genetic mutation, Canadian geneticist Geoff Burton relocates to the harsh, wintry scenery of Dresden, Germany to work on groundbreaking new project that might just be his key to redemption. When teamed up with his former intern and colleague Rebekka, he starts working on a human regenerative gene with direct ties to his personal tragedy, yet matters prove increasingly difficult: jealous co-‐workers’ feelings are ruffled, old flames are rekindled and personal demons become consistently harder to suppress in this new and oppressive work environment. Still haunted by the memory of his wife and his failures to have saved his deceased son, Burton finds himself maddeningly close to a medical breakthrough, yet quickly spiralling out of control. Collapsing his career and personal life into a dark and increasingly dangerous tunnel-‐vision of competitive genetics, delusions of all kinds and the terrifying potential of massive discoveries gone awry, Burton is quite literally the stranger in the strange land. The question remains: how far will Burton be willing to go to atone for the errors of his past?
