Following an award-winning festival run, Beyond Methuselah comes to DVD and Blu-ray December 1, 2026.
Three years ago, an experimental cancer treatment had an unexpected side effect: immortality. Some celebrate the discovery, others oppose it as defying God’s will. When the treatment is made universally available, a group of extremists escalate the culture war into a bloody one. Now, two estranged sisters race to find their mother before the terrorists, while their father wrestles with how the rhetoric from his pulpit might be complicit with the mounting violence.
“We set out to make a film that explores how loved ones are torn apart by ideology, and the slippery slope of righteousness,” said filmmaker April Grace Lowe. “It takes belief seriously, and explores how an individual’s faith can endure when their religious community fails them.”
Beyond Methuselah was written by Craig Jessen (A Promise of Time Travel) and April Grace Lowe (Jaw Recorder: Confessions of a Romance Narrator), with Jessen directing alongside Jamie Renée Smith, making her directorial debut after an acting career that includes Dante’s Peak, True Blood, and Animal Kingdom. The film features an original score by Wieslaw Pogorzelski (who worked on Asphalto, Routemaster, and Hellboy).
