What happens

2073 is a 2024 science fiction docudrama film directed by Asif Kapadia, co-written with Tony Grisoni. It stars Samantha Morton, Naomi Ackie, Hector Hewer, Maria Ressa, Carole Cadwalladr and Rana Ayyub. Set in a dystopian future, the film is inspired by Chris Marker's 1962 featurette La Jetée. It takes on the big subjects of climate change, corporate fascism, the global erosion of democracy through the rise of fascism and fictionally depicts a future where these forces are allowed to continue unchecked. The docudrama premiered out of competition of the 81st Venice International Film Festival on 3 September 2024. It was theatrically released in the United Kingdom by Neon on 27 December.
