It’s the year 2073 where the worst fears of modern life have been realised. Surveillance drones fill the burnt orange skies and militarised police roam the wrecked streets, while humans hide away underground, struggling to a free and hopeful existence.

In this ingenious mixture of visionary science fiction and nonfiction, Kapadia transports us to a future foreshadowed by the terrifying realities of our present.

Academy Award®-nominee Samantha Morton (MINORITY REPORT) plays a survivor besieged by nightmare visions of the past—a past that happens to be our present, visualised through contemporary footage interconnecting today’s global crises of authoritarianism, unchecked big tech, inequality, and our global climate crisis. 2073 is an urgent, unshakable vision of a dystopic future that could very well be our own.

2073 will get a limited UK and Irish cinema release on 1st and 2nd January 2025 (with Kapida Q&A).In the U.S Neon will release the film theatrically on 27th December.
