Ideal for readers interested in film analysis, dystopian stories, and cultural studies, particularly those fascinated by cinematic satire and political themes.
Widely believed to be Terry Gilliam's best film, Brazil's brilliantly imaginative vision of a retro-futuristic bureaucracy has had a lasting influence on genre cinema. Exploring its complex history and relationship with other dystopias, Paul McAuley explains why this satire on the unchecked power of the state is more relevant than ever.
An astute reading of the film and its significance in dystopian cinema.' - Good Book Guide
