A všetci budeme mladí (slovensky) (2026)

It all begins innocently. Four volunteers sign up for a clinical trial testing a new heart medication, but suddenly they become significantly younger. High-school student Jakob has just fallen in love, yet reacts to expressions of affection like a small child. Teacher Jenny has long yearned unsuccessfully for a child, and suddenly she is pregnant. Wenger, a seriously ill real-estate magnate, has arranged a grand farewell to life, but to the great horror of his heirs he suddenly blossoms again. Verena, a three-time Olympic swimming champion who gave up her sporting career long ago, unexpectedly breaks a world record without any training. What is happening? When information about the rejuvenating drug reaches the public, turmoil erupts on every front. This remarkably clear-sighted and witty novel portrays the protagonists’ wildest year. With warm humour, it raises major ethical and social questions that humanity and every individual will have to answer, because scientific research cannot be stopped and it is only a matter of time before biological rejuvenation becomes reality. Will people eventually live forever, and how will it affect us? The contents are in Slovak.
