It was inspired by the best-selling 1968 non-fiction book The Population Bomb, by Paul R. Ehrlich. The film concerns an overpopulated future Earth whose world government executes those who violate a 30-year ban on having children. Filmed in Denmark, the film is almost entirely set-bound featuring art direction designed to reflect a bleak, oppressive future. ## Credits - **Director:** [Michael Campus](https://cinepixo.com/people/michael-campus) - **Screenplay:** [Frank De Felitta](https://cinepixo.com/people/frank-de-felitta), [Max Ehrlich](https://cinepixo.com/people/max-ehrlich) - **Original Music Composer:** [Jonathan Hodge](https://cinepixo.com/people/jonathan-hodge) - **Director of Photography:** [Mikael Salomon](https://cinepixo.com/people/mikael-salomon), [Michael Reed](https://cinepixo.com/people/michael-reed) ## Cast - [Bent Christensen](https://cinepixo.com/people/bent-christensen) - [Claus Nissen](https://cinepixo.com/people/claus-nissen) - [Bill Nagy](https://cinepixo.com/people/bill-nagy) - [Diane Cilento](https://cinepixo.com/people/diane-cilento) - [Geraldine Chaplin](https://cinepixo.com/people/geraldine-chaplin) - [Oliver Reed](https://cinepixo.com/people/oliver-reed) - [Don Gordon](https://cinepixo.com/people/don-gordon) - [Birgitte Federspiel](https://cinepixo.com/people/birgitte-federspiel) - [David Markham](https://cinepixo.com/people/david-markham) - [Aubrey Woods](https://cinepixo.com/people/aubrey-woods) ## Criticism on CinePixo No reviews published yet.
