Children of Men - What Happens to a World Without Hope?

Woman Inherits the Earth: Children of Men


In this, the Children of Men episode of the pod, Beth and Tess discuss a movie about the bleak far-off future of…2027! Topics include Michael Caine’s performance as a hippie, the music of the dystopia, a lot about how the children are very literally our future, how gender relates to violence, and what do you do in a world without hope?


Content warning: some adult language, discussion of film violence, particularly cruelty to refugees.


A note about spoilers: As much as we’d love to make this a spoiler-free podcast, the truth is, we can’t really get much of a discussion going without completely spoiling the plot of the film we’re talking about. If you don’t want to be spoiled, watch the movie before you listen to us.


Special thanks to aceinet, who recorded our intro and outro song, “Floyd Filtertron DA Shuffle.”
