Showtime's Citizen Bio documentary delves into the world of biohacking

  • Through the late biomedical entrepreneur Aaron Traywick, who died in 2018 at age 28, director Trish Dolman’s Citizen Bio "intrigues and engrosses despite its conspicuous limitations," says Inkoo Kang. "The film never really gets inside Traywick’s head, though it probably doesn’t need to — his actions speak for themselves. But at the heart of the doc is a vast disconnect between the unremarkable boy that his middle-class Alabaman relatives knew him as and the conman with the cocaine habit that he would grow up to be."
