For this essay, you will closely analyze a film(s) or television series specific to the dystopia and apocalyptic genres. Your goal is to elaborate or build upon the understanding you gained in class about the impact and influence the theme (s) this genre has on audiences.
My Topic:
You may choose to do a semiotic analysis and argue for how dystopian or apocalyptic films impact audiences. Discuss how the themes/plot/main subject matter influence our understanding of our current/present society. Consider the prominence of this genre and what it says about human nature (consider totalitarian, the end/the beginning, our connection to these themes).
