Unexpected Futures

Unexpected Futures, a feature-length film series, explores the future cities, hotel rooms, and ecologies in which dark outcomes have come to take place. In Hong Kong, LA, and an unidentified “Zone,” characters navigate scenarios which index both anxieties and desires of the eras in which these films were made.
