Fiction for Future - Von der Apokalypse lernen(2021)
Apocalypse series such as "Fear the Walking Dead" have shown us all too distressingly that, in the face of the apocalypse, stockpiling may secure your own supplies in the short term, but in no way offers protection against the actual threat. And an end-time classic like “Contagion“ already preached ten years ago that hand hygiene and face masks are essential if a global pandemic is to be contained. In "Fiction for Future", we ask old masters of the genre such as Roland Emmerich, Terry Gilliam and Frank Schätzing what the nightmarish tales of doom tell us about the horrors of our future. How will global challenges such as climate change and pandemics change our lives? Can we master the major challenges of our future? And if so, how?
