Plot
The year is 2073, and modern life’s worst fears have come true. Surveillance drones fill the burnt orange sky and militarized police roam the devastated streets, while survivors hide underground, fighting to remember a free and hopeful life. In this brilliant blend of visionary science fiction and speculative nonfiction, Oscar®-winning director Asif Kapadia (Amy) takes us into a future foreshadowed by the horrific realities of our present moment. Two-time Oscar® nominee Samantha Morton (To America, What We Disagree, Minority Report) plays a survivor plagued by nightmarish visions of the past, a past that happens to be our present, visualized through contemporary footage that connects the current global crises of authoritarianism, unchecked big technology, inequality, and global climate change. 2073 is an urgent, unwavering vision of a dystopian future that could very well be ours.
