Cities of the Future invites you to step into the future and discover the exciting innovations engineers are working on right now to help meet the challenges of a changing world. Renewable energy will be our primary power source, solar energy beamed down from space will power entire cities, smart buildings and greener infrastructure will keep us cool, and we will travel on aerial highways in individualized pods that run on little or no energy. We will also ride in electric flying vehicles! Traffic jams will be a thing of the past. This isn’t science fiction. This is the world engineers are designing right now. Travel to some of the world’s greatest cities—from Amsterdam to Los Angeles to Singapore and more—where profound change is already happening and meet the engineers and visionaries whose human ingenuity is forging a brighter, more sustainable future for us all.
Narrated by critically acclaimed actor John Krasinski, Cities of the Future is produced by MacGillivray Freeman Films in partnership with the American Society of Civil Engineers, the same award-winning team that created the blockbuster film Dream Big: Engineering Our World.

Superhuman Body: World of Medical Marvels explores the inner workings of the human body and the incredible breakthroughs in science and medical technologies that are allowing us to live longer, healthier lives. Told through the inspiring stories of researchers, scientists, and everyday people behind these ground-breaking medical innovations—and narrated by Academy Award winner Matthew McConaughey—Superhuman Body shows the extraordinary ways our bodies work, and how science and technology help us to intervene, and even save lives, when things go wrong. Meet Ty Duckett, an adaptive surfer with an above-the-knee leg amputation who is living life to the fullest with an advanced prosthetic; Emily Whitehead, a teen whose childhood leukemia was cured after life-changing CAR T-cell therapy; Dr. Ayanna Howard, a pioneering roboticist whose medical robots help teach and rehabilitate humans, like stroke patients and children with social development challenges; and James Garrett, a retired flight nurse whose life-threatening heart condition was treated with TAVR (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement), an innovative medical procedure that does not require open-heart surgery. An inspirational film about people getting second chances, Superhuman Body will inspire you, move you and empower you – you‘ll be amazed what your superhuman body can do!
