It’s 2073, and the biggest fears of modern life have come true. Surveillance drones fill the burnt orange sky, and paramilitary police roam the destroyed streets, and the survivors hide underground, trying their best to remember a free and hopeful existence. In this ingenious blend of forward-thinking science fiction and speculative science fiction, Academy Award®-winning director Asif Kapadia (Emmy) takes us into a future foreshadowed by the terrifying realities of our present. Two-time Academy Award nominee Samantha Morton (“In America,” “Sweet and Low,” “Osoboe Mnienie”) plays a survivor besieged by nightmarish visions of the past — a past that turns out to be our present, visualized through interconnected modern frames of the present. Global crises of authoritarianism, uncontrolled technologies, inequality and global climate change. “2073” is an urgent and unshakable vision of a dystopian future, which may well become ours.
