Brave New World

1980 · 180 min

A chilly, talky dystopia that feels like a stage play about freedom and desire, more thought-provoking than thrilling.

Overview: A man who grew up in a primitive society educating himself by reading Shakespeare is allowed to join the futuristic society where his parents are from. However, he cannot adapt to their repressive ways.
How it feels: Bleak, satirical, melancholic and tense. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Identity, freedom, conspiracy, love
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
