I've just read on Brazilian's magazine "Mundo Estranho"(¹) an article claiming that there are currently about 250 people preserved in a literally frozen state, based on the hope that they may be brought back to life in the future (as described here). Some of these people are famous characters.

My question is pretty straightforward: Are there any movies depicting such premise? In a rather quick search I couldn't find any.

Thanks

[Edit] I am indeed aware of depictions in the form of "deep sleep", "hybernation", "cryo-sleep" and such. Some of them in video-games, some in movies where it's portrayed as a "secondary" topic (Interstellar for instance).
  What I'm actually looking for is a realist (either in the scientific or sociocultural sense of the word), sci-fi movie in the context of the scenario I introduced, hence having as the central plot:

The idea of people being declared dead, being frozen and then brought back to life and society in a distant future.


¹ "Mundo Estranho" means "Strange World" in a loose translation. The one I'm quoting is no. 174 and refer Alcor Life Extension Foundation, Cryonics Institute and BBC as sources.
