What is Neon’s 2073 movie about?
“It’s the year 2073, and the worst fears of modern life have been realized,” the synopsis reads. “Surveillance drones fill the burnt orange skies and militarized police roam the wrecked streets, while survivors hide away underground, struggling to remember a free and hopeful existence. In this ingenious mixture of visionary science fiction and speculative nonfiction, Academy Award-winning filmmaker Asif Kapadia (Amy) transports us to a future foreshadowed by the terrifying realities of our present moment. Two-time Academy Award nominee Samantha Morton (In America, Sweet and Lowdown, Minority Report) plays a survivor besieged by nightmare visions of the past—a past that happens to be our present, visualized through contemporary footage interconnecting today’s global crises of authoritarianism, unchecked big tech, inequality, and global climate change. 2073 is an urgent, unshakable vision of a dystopic future that could very well be our own.”
2073 is based on Chirs Maker’s 1962 sci-fi/documentary featurette La Jetée, which is about a time traveler attempting to change the course of human history.
Kapadia produces 2073 alongside George Chignell for Lafcadia Productions. Tom Quinn, Dan O’Meara, Emily Thomas, Dana O’Keefe, Emily Selinger, Ollie Madden, Farhana Bhula, Nicole Stott, Chris King, Eric Sloss, and John Sloss serve as executive producers, while Double Agent, NEON, and Film4 also executive produced and co-financed the project.
Having held its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival, 2037 will be released in select theaters in the United States on December 27, 2024.
