Race to Mars is a two part TV movie about first human mission to Mars in 2030. The movie was made by Discovery Channel Canada in 2007. It is as scientific as it can be and covers almost all possible problems which can occur in such mission (even being too harsh if you ask my opinion). Although it is not officially stated - Race to Mars is heavily based (with modifications of course) on now canceled Constellation mission design of NASA.

ISECG strategy for long-range human space exploration
The International Space Exploration Coordination Group (ISECG) is a forum of 14 most advanced government space agencies - ASI (Italy), CNES (France), CNSA (China), CSA (Canada), CSIRO (Australia), DLR (Germany), ESA (European Space Agency), ISRO (India), JAXA (Japan), KARI (Republic of Korea), NASA (United States of America), NSAU (Ukraine), Roscosmos (Russia), UKSA (United Kingdom). Its main goal is to advance a long-range human space exploration strategy.
On August, 2013 12 ISECG member agencies (including NASA) released the most recent update to the Global Exploration Roadmap. The summary can be seen in this infographic:
On April 10-11, 2014 NASA plans to host a workshop to discuss the updates to this roadmap.
Hope, the private pioneers like SpaceX, Mars One and others will speed up those plans a bit!
