The genre that my short film is contained in is that of Sci-fi/Drama. It incorporates parts of the Sci-fi genre such as technology dealing with the mind and the typical dystopian future with the over lording government and the restrictions set on the general public whilst showing raw human emotions and feelings that are seen in the Drama genre.
Notable examples of other media texts that share similar premise and themes:
V for Vendetta – Great Britain has been made into a fascist state, with the government controlling what people watch and the news they hear whilst banning certain religions and entertainment.
Strange Days – Involves the idea of memories and emotions being able to be stored on disks and how that can affect people.
Nineteen Eighty-four – The government invades personal privacy and no one is free from the “Big Brother” the highest rank of the society which controls all.
