"Zone 414" (2021) Directed by Andrew Baird #dystopia #dystopian #moviereview #movies
Continuing my recent season of Guy Pearce films (Domino, The Seventh Day and Memory), Zone 414 was an easy sell as we depart for a “City of Robots” and a near dystopian future of pure mechanisation in smog filled cities and zones whereby the inhabitants are largely indistinguishable between the living, breathing human beings who eke out a meagre living, and the androids that live and work freely amongst them. There are “synths that want to be human, and humans that want to be synths” in this graffiti lined and walled off world of zones and a place that “must end” and where a synthetic humanoid named “Jane” (Matilda Lutz) is seen as the bright new future amongst the dirty detritus of a dystopian future life.
Headliner Pearce stars as “David Carmichael” who after a career in the police now works freelance as a private detective. “I live with what I do” he opines with a methodical detachment belying the heartache beneath his somewhat cold exterior. Bestowed a privileged pass into the walled off Zone numbered 414, his task is to track down the daughter of the wealthy and obnoxious owner of the corporation that ostensibly owns and runs the zone, and he calls upon the shining beacon and future of all newly proposed AI robots Jane, to assist him.
