Helio (2015)


Helio (2015) Poster

Helio (2015) Best Sci-Fi Film of 2016 Comic Con

A miner worker sparks a revolution when he attempts to break free of his dystopian underworld. On the eve of a rebel uprising in a dystopian underground society, he finds the key to freedom and attempts to escape before the hostile government kills him first. Helios (?????) is the Greek word for the Sun but depending on how it is conjugated it can also be written "Helio"(????). Winner of over 50 awards, including Best Sci-Fi / Fantasy Film of 2016 at San Diego Comic Con. Written and Directed by Teddy Ceci.

Helio (2015) is epic film in both execution and scale

The rich will inherit the earth and all its wealth and privileges. It's always been that way and always will be?! The world is a layer cake. You start at the bottom, and take all the shit. You move up, you take less shit. If you're lucky and ruthless, you give out all the shit. OR You have the third world at the bottom, living in poverty and death to do the hardest work for the lowest wage. Up the cake you go until you reach 'us' in North America, at the second last (or next to the top) layer, complaining about how much shit we take to fatten the pigs at the top. With a little perspective, we would realize how good we have it, but we're all staring at the guys up top in their mansions and their million dollar cars. This is excellent movie, a true testament to the fact sci-fi doesn't always have to be over-the-top with fantasy.?
