Brazil

Focusing on Terry Gilliam's dystopian satire Brazil, Arthur C. Clark award-winning science fiction novelist Paul McAuley analyses the film's production, narrative and critical reception. He also examines its relationship to other dystopian visions of the future such as Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four.When the American distributors demanded extensive cuts, Gilliam waged a successful guerilla battle, which became the stuff of Hollywood legend, to preserve its integrity.
