Il futuro vede una Gran Bretagna conosciuta come Area 27, nella quale la societ\u00e0 \u00e8 divisa in un&#8217;\u00e9lite e in una maggioranza dominata da bassi istinti. I primi utilizzano la televisione per ottundere i sensi della maggioranza, in particolar modo attraverso la pornografia, in quanto il sesso televisivo ha ormai sostituito quello reale. Quando questo metodo comincia a non avere pi\u00f9 affetto il Coordinatore Ugo Priest inaugura il &#8220;Live Life Show&#8221;, nel corso del quale una famiglia lascia l&#8217;Area 27 per andare a vivere su un&#8217;isola deserta, dove la loro vita verr\u00e0 trasmessa in televisione 24 ore al giorno. Vivere sull&#8217;isola si riveler\u00e0 per\u00f2 essere un&#8217;esperienza tutt&#8217;altro che idilliaca.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Nigel Kneane&#8217;s futuristic parable demonstrates his abiding concerns with both current youth movements and the power of modern media, particularly television. In a Britain of the future, known as area 27, society is divided into the minority &#8216;high-drive&#8217; people and the majority &#8216;low-drive&#8217;. The former use the voyeuristic pleasures of television, largely through pornography, to dull the most basic urges of the masses. When the sex shows begin to lose their impact, &#8216;The Live Life Show&#8217; is inaugurated by Co-ordinator Ugo Priest, in which a family leave Area 27 to live on a remote and supposedly deserted island, and they are televised 24 hours a day doing so.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h5>Sceneggiatura_Screenplay<br \/>\n<strong>Nigel Kneale<\/strong><br \/>\nInterpreti_Cast<br \/>\n<strong>Leonard Rossiter, Suzanne Neve, Brian Coburn, Brian Cox, Derek Fowlds, Patricia Maynard, Wolfe Morris<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_separator color=&#8221;black&#8221; border_width=&#8221;2&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1698237245454{margin-top: 30px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">2003 Festival Lineup<\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=&#8221;black&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1698237228846{margin-top: -20px !important;}&#8221;][vc_basic_grid post_type=&#8221;film&#8221; max_items=&#8221;-1&#8243; style=&#8221;load-more&#8221; items_per_page=&#8221;8&#8243; element_width=&#8221;3&#8243; gap=&#8221;10&#8243; orderby=&#8221;rand&#8221; item=&#8221;43419&#8243; initial_loading_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; btn_title=&#8221;Vedi altri film&#8221; btn_style=&#8221;outline&#8221; btn_shape=&#8221;square&#8221; btn_color=&#8221;black&#8221; grid_id=&#8221;vc_gid:1715678998110-12de40f1-c82e-0&#8243; taxonomies=&#8221;100&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<h5>Michael Elliott <br \/>\nUK 1968, 105\u2019 <br \/>\n&#8211; <br \/>\n2003 TV Sci-Fi<\/h5>\n<p> <a class=\"g1-link g1-link-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencefictionfestival.org\/en\/film\/the-year-of-the-sex-olympics\/\">More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":32488,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"neon":[306],"class_list":{"0":"post-50586","1":"film","2":"type-film","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"neon-tv-sci-fi-2003"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
