Hope to advance the barrel

The year 2027 in the movie is an apocalyptic assembly-the collapse of social order, the loss of fertility, and the death of the youngest male on earth in a conspiracy... The Hush of Deep Purple just sounded, hopelessly mad in the gray world. Alfonso Cuarón strives to build a world in which there is no future. The chaotic Africa and Eastern Europe gave birth to a large number of anarchists, opinion elements, terrorism rampant, proliferation of guns, immigration issues... and the British island nation of Western Europe. Ruled by fascist administrators-almost cruel immigration policies, government terrorism, everyone just "blindly kill or escape the killing, life is like a waste".
The existence of the objective world itself is absurd, but the world reflected in the film "Son of Man" is truly terrifying. This should be attributed to Alfonso Cuarón's grasp of the world view in the novel. Even in his defeated "Magic Woman Warrior", the depiction of the background is at least part of the success. So in such a tyrannical and desperate society, the emergence of a pregnant woman about to give birth became a turning point in the world. Humans have never pinned all their hopes on such helpless lives. Can Britain under military rule continue to implement its immigration policy? Can the radical organization "Fish" use this baby to shake the foundation of its rule and lose hope. Can human beings still get a hint of enlightenment... So this baby is destined to have a simple life from time to time from the moment of birth.
Theo decides to protect Kee to give birth to the child safely, and protect her to go to the "Tomorrow" ship to accept the shelter of the "Human Project". In my opinion, this is somewhat "selfish" because he has participated in radical organizations and made politicians. He understands the meaninglessness of resistance and the corruption of politics, so he is the only one who can stand in the position of a normal human being to face the "son of humanity"-fighting for this baby in a role similar to that of a father. Perhaps because of this, the character Theo (the name means God in Greek) shines with humanity throughout the movie.
In the depiction of war scenes at the climax of the movie, Alfonso Cuarón used The long lens and hand-held camera reproduce the feel of a documentary. When Theo accompanies Kee and the baby in his arms to appear in front of the soldiers, the camera's upward angle of view is quite religious. These are the visual enjoyments brought to us by talented directors
In terms of music, there are Deep Purple, Pink Floyd, Radiohead, John Lennon, The Kills, and Jarvis Cocker, and the quality of the original soundtrack is not bad.
The movie "Son of Humanity" can be regarded as one of the most exciting movies of 2006, and "The Good Man in the Three Gorges" which lost to Jia Zhangke at Cannes is also regarded as a disappointment. Why did Chinese movies have a strong momentum in the past two years? . But I think it's also hanging on the Oscars-facing a group of old academic monsters and science fiction movies, I have hardly asked for anything. At least in my mind, this movie is an out-and-out film, and Alfonso Cuarón's strength as a leading figure in Hollywood's next-generation directors should not be underestimated.
PS China's total fertility rate in the fifth census in 2000 was only 1.22 in 2000, which is far from the 2.1-2.2 required for generational replacement. China is facing the problem of population decline. How far is 2027 in the movie?

    That’s why I realized that if you want to save the world, you must fuck the heroine every 10 months to give her as many children as possible. Too TM evil~~
