故事根据Rebecca Skloot的纪实文学改编。标题人物Henrietta Lacks是上世纪五十年代一位身患癌症的黑人女性，1951年医学研究者非法从她身上获取了癌细胞，结果却引出了令人震惊的医学突破——不仅改变了许多人的命运，甚至改变了整个医学界。据称当时Henrietta Lacks的细胞被用来创造第一株「不死的」人体干细胞——在接受植入后的一个星期仍然存活。 　　该剧的主人公是Henrietta Lacks的女儿Deborah Lacks（Oprah Winfrey），她试图理解一个自己从未见过的母亲，研究她与现代医学发展之间的奇特关联。剧情深刻揭露了医学界的傲慢、自大、种族、贫穷等问题，同时深入剖析「最不可能成为朋友的人」如何建立起「最深厚的友谊」。Rose Byrne扮演年轻女记者Rebecca Skloot，她正在调查Henrietta Lacks的故事及其「不死的」细胞。她与Henrietta的女儿、魅力非凡但性格复杂的Deborah建立了亲密友谊。 　　经过长达十多年的调查研究，Rebecca最终写出了著名的《Henrietta Lacks的不朽人生》（The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks）。这本书出版后立刻登上《纽约时报》畅销书排行榜，并且在榜单上停留了整整四年时间，影响力甚为深远。

Narrated by Gabriel Byrne (Usual Suspects, Vanity Fair, Miller's Crossing), this seven-time Best Documentary award-winning film (Silver Lake Film Festival, Beverly Hills Film Festival) is the most comprehensive and mind-blowing investigation of humankind's relationship with death ever captured on film. Hailed by many viewers as a "life-transformational film," Flight from Death uncovers death anxiety as a possible root cause of many of our behaviors on a psychological, spiritual, and cultural level. 　　Following the work of the late cultural anthropologist, Ernest Becker, and his Pulitzer Prize-winning book Denial of Death, this documentary explores the ongoing research of a group of social psychologists that may forever change the way we look at ourselves and the world. Over the last twenty-five years, this team of researchers has conducted over 300 laboratory studies, which substantiate Becker's claim that death anxiety is a primary motivator of human behavior, specifically aggression and violence. 　　Flight from Death features an all-star cast of scholars, authors, philosophers, and researchers including Sam Keen, Robert Jay Lifton, Irvin Yalom, and Sheldon Solomon culminating in a film that is "not only thought-provoking but also entertaining and put together with a lot of class" (Eric Campos, Film Threat). Three years in the making and beautifully photographed in eight different countries, Flight from Death is "a stimulating, ultimately life-affirming film, filled with big ideas and revelatory footage" (Jeff Shannon, Seattle Times).
