Movie Info

This film explores the underground movement that has galvanized the imaginative, the artistic, the nerdy, even the deranged -- to examine the simmering dystopia in their culture, and do absolutely nothing about it... except, maybe, poke fun at it all.

  • Boone gives us both a nostalgic account on this underground movement and how their sci-fi inspired dystopia applies to each decade of history, up till today, where the documentary earns its whole-hearted earnestness.
