EXCERPT: The visual aspect of film heightens the presentism of science fiction dystopias, and it is here that architecture plays a role. As we will show in our analysis of Brazil and the Hunger Games series, the production design of the presentist future draws on the ‘dead styles’ of historical architecture, quoting and incorporating them into purpose-built studio sets and models constructed in miniature or rendered in virtual environments. In addition, these films draw directly on architecture in the real world, selecting and reworking built environments to stand in for spaces of the future.
