The final episode of the trilogy Death & Immortality in Cinema — a compost of ideas born from my old university thesis on science-fiction cinema and the human pursuit of eternity.

In this closing chapter, we step beyond the threshold.

What happens when the dream of immortality finally works?

When death steps aside, and time stops moving forward?

From The Bicentennial Man to Blade Runner 2049, from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind to The Truman Show, we explore what remains of humanity when endings disappear — when memory, technology, and eternity blur into one.

This episode is not about conquering death, but about thestillness that follows. About what it means to keep creating, loving, and choosing despite knowing it will all end.
