DIVISION 19<br />
CLOSING<br />
NIGHT FILM<br />
Reality television has done it all<br />
hasn’t it? Our news is impartial,<br />
right? Goverment works for us?<br />
In 2039 rather than selecting people<br />
for ‘reality freak shows’ we now use<br />
prisons as the latest opiate for the<br />
masses. Viewers get to choose what<br />
the prisoners eat, what they wear,<br />
the entertainment they can access –<br />
even who they must fight.<br />
So successful has this been that<br />
the TV company now wants to<br />
extend beyond the prison walls and<br />
broadcast the surrounding town’s<br />
population. Who will stop them?<br />
If the Truman Show could be any<br />
darker, then DIVISION 19 takes the<br />
extra step and questions who we<br />
are and why, for centuries, we have<br />
loved watching the misfortune and<br />
gladiatorial behaviour of others.<br />
Written and directed by Suzie<br />
Halewood and a smash hit at Boston<br />
