Chronology

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 a brilliant blend of visionary science fiction and speculative nonfiction, Oscar®-winning filmmaker Asif Kapadia (Amy) takes us into a future projected by the horrifying reality of our present. Two-time Oscar® nominee Samantha Morton (In America, Sweet and Lowdown, Minority Report) plays a survivor besieged by nightmarish visions of the past – a past that happens to be our present, presented through contemporary footage that connects our present; and the 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.
