Rollerball : Gladiators, “Corporatism” and Proto-Cyberpunk Dystopia

Описание к видео Rollerball : Gladiators, “Corporatism” and Proto-Cyberpunk Dystopia

1975’s Rollerball is far more than a dig at violent contact sports. Its vision of a world ruled by oligarchs who control the masses through media is even more relevant today than it was in its time. It also shows us the beginnings of what would evolve into Cyberpunk a few years later with the arrival of mass-market home computers.
