Episode description

This week, we’re tackling the theme of overpopulation in dystopian fiction by diving into two thought-provoking films: Soylent Green (1973) and What Happened to Monday (2017). We’ll be asking the big questions: What exactly is Soylent Green? And what really happened to Monday? Soylent Green offers a grim look at a future where overpopulation has led to extreme measures for survival, while What Happened to Monday explores a world where strict population control policies have severe and unexpected consequences.

Join us as we explore how these films confront the terrifying realities of an overcrowded world and the drastic solutions that dystopian societies might impose.
