Abstract
This chapter discusses Alfonso Cuarón's method of layering richly detailed background information that serves as exposition of the Children of Men's totalitarian and xenophobic social landscape as well as articulation of its political and technological critique. It details how Children of Men compels the viewer to recognize how a tyrannical system dehumanizes and ostracizes people. It also analyses Children of Men's connection of the rise of British fascism to nationalism, xenophobia, and the public's complacency. The chapter explores the biological apocalypse that provokes geopolitical fracturing in Children of Men. It describes the Middle East wars and European immigration crisis portrayed in Children of Men.
