Neon, Double Agent and Film4 are partnering to co-finance and exec produce ‘2073,’ a new documentary from Academy Award and BAFTA-winning director Asif Kapadia
is billed as a genre-bending thriller set in a dystopian future, which will tackle some of the biggest challenges imperiling our future. The project is inspired by Chris Marker’s iconic 1962 featurette— about a time traveler who risks his life to change the course of history and save the future of humanity — which previously served as the basis for Terry Gilliam’s sci-fi picKapadia and George Chignell are producing.
Said Kapadia: “I want to make an epic about the state of the world, using elements of science fiction as a lens through which to examine the huge questions we are facing as a species, and hopefully find solutions, before it’s too late.” “We bet on filmmakers, and Asif is among the very best out there,” remarked Double Agent President, Dana O’Keefe. “
His track record really speaks for itself as he consistently delivers unparalleled storytelling, so this is a truly formidable team between NEON, Film4, Concordia, and Left Handed. We are all proud to be joining forces on this innovative, bold and unconventional look at the future.” “Asif is a consistently ground-breaking filmmaker who we’ve been lucky enough to work with on a number of his previous films,” added Film4 Director, Ollie Madden. “This new project, a documentary-style vision of the future, as terrifying as it is an urgent call to action, had us immediately hooked. We can’t wait to see what Asif and his expert team create.”
