Synopsis:
Imagine a world where everyone over 60 is tossed on the scrapheap, children are hothoused and being a 'burden on society' is the ultimate crime. Everybody is given a permit that displays their economic value to society and inspectors are out to get the worthless. . . This dark satire conceives an ultra-capitalist world where limited resources dictate that there is only room for the smart, healthy and well-adjusted. Neither the old nor inept will fit as human cogs in 'The Utility's' consumerist machine.
