Saw this last week
A real must see (helps if you like smart sci-fi)
The conceit is that following a failed experiment to stop global waming, the earth has become frozen and the only survivors are touring the planet on a huge train that has evolved a hierarchical society that is quasi medieval
Violent - the lower order live in cramped quarters at the back and the film follows their revolt
The film was based on a French graphic novel from the 80s - la transperceneige
Well worth catching - interesting combination of the consequences of the environmental breakdown with our evolving economic structure where the top 1% continue to get richer while the bottom stagnates
Catch it if you can
