Soylent Green is a science fiction movie directed by Richard
Fleischer. It was released in 1973.
Synopsis
In the year 2022, earth's face has completely changed. New York's
population, for example, has grown to 40 million mouths to feed.
The greenhouse effect has risen the temperature into nearly unbearable
regions, and the people are kept in the cities by law. The rich
live in separated luxury apartments (with women as part of the
rented furniture) but also experience the lack of natural food.
Strawberries are at $150 for a glass of them. Police Detective
Thorn investigates a strange murdering case of a official from
the Soylent corporation, which feeds the masses with a palette
of their creations: Soylent red, yellow, or, even more nutritious,
green. He soon stumbles across the real source of Soylent Green,
which is not soy beans or plankton any more.
