Empire of Elysium [Film and TV Commentary]

In the middle of the 22nd century, the earth did not become more beautiful through the advancement of civilization and technology. Instead, it became a hopeless wasteland under the poison of all kinds of greed. A few extremely wealthy people abandoned their hometown and built a paradise-like paradise on a space station floating above the earth, and continued to live a happy and luxurious life. The vast majority of poor people have to stay on the devastated earth, lingering in desperate chaos, and at the same time are forced to endure the oppression of various harsh and ridiculous federal regulations. They work hard to earn a meager living under the industrial system established by the rich. Sometimes they look up to the sky and dream of emigrating to the space station and starting a new life. Helplessly, under the iron fist of government official Delacourt (Jodie Foster), the stowaways turned into fragments in the universe time and time again. Max (Matt Damon), an ordinary person who is exposed to strong radiation at work, will die in five days unless he uses the advanced medical system of the space station. Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, we must move towards the paradise world...
