Dystopia

2017 · 12 min

A cold, oppressive short that feels like a bureaucratic nightmare, suffocating in its quiet inevitability.

Overview: A political party takes over the power of a new World Order, and establishes Dystopia law, which condemns adulterous men to death row. Each case is sentenced by a body called the Antidote. The defendant is not entitled to a defense. There is only a taped statement minutes before each execution takes place.
How it feels: Dark, bleak, tense and satirical. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Power, justice, morality, death
Content: Mild violence, gore, sexual content and language.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
