In this episode we’re going to have a look at Alfonso Cuarón’s 2006 dystopian action-thriller Children of Men. Despite its relatively poor performance at the box office upon release, the movie has become somewhat of a modern classic by now and seems to be fairly popular among antinatalists due to its central topic and main source of conflict: a global infertility crisis. Besides discussing the main plot, we’ll also go into the social, political and spiritual themes the film explores, many of which (refugee streams and authoritarian reaction to it e.g.) are still very much relevant today.
