    Multiple dreamscapes... a Second Wave Iranian Film, but in contemporary Winnipeg.

    160,000-square-foot, 16K resolution screen !? The first and the most costly of it's kind...

    The narrative tho?? Burning the planet to watch this environmentalist film that in practice trashes Earth and then advocates to abandon the planet in favor of outer space pioneering and colonization. It's as if Elon Musk wrote this script.

    At $150 - $250 per ticket (including crazy ticketmaster fees) conservatives visiting or living in Vegas are likely the primary consumers of this film experience. They'll see it as some kind of silicon valley left-wing story. However, it's a startlingly clear plan charted by the ruling tech class.
