Totalitarian Stories

Enter the world of Major Dubinkin's absolute power, where control turns into loneliness and self-destruction.

A young teenage girl, haunted by the memories of her father's execution, attempts to escape a cruel regime by night. A solitary woman, abandoned by her husband, inadvertently plays into the cruel hands of 'the state'. In another totalitarian regime a traffic light fixer is dealt with brutally for admiring a sunset. All these characters capture the essence of what it's like to be disempowered and cruelly dehumanised at the hands of a heinous, corrupt power. This sharp collection of pertinent short stories throws an at times uncomfortable light on cruelty, injustice and persecution that is all too relevant today. But ultimately these stories celebrate the strength and determination to survive at all costs, that exists within all of us.

A new day dawns in the city of Nova II. However, it is paradoxical to use the word "day" because, in this futuristic universe where everyone is implanted with a cerebral chip at birth, daylight never penetrates. A thick forest of terrestrial and flying buildings covers the space, without a single patch of sky being visible. The garish neon lights of screens and advertising holograms replace the sun. In this world where History no longer exists, humans immerse themselves in a permanent celebration of pleasures and entertainment, without questioning what might have existed before them, accompanied by hyper-realistic AIs developed by the consortium of companies that rule the world: Terranova. This world of infinite carefreeness will be disrupted by Mia, a young AI who accidentally discovers that this place has a past: an ancient city called Paris... Written by Pierre-Yves Tallec, based on an original idea by Stephan Boschat and Ikoï Studio. Translated by Alexandra Radlovic.

Prism: The Glass Worldwide Kingdom In a world governed by the totalitarian Glass Worldwide Kingdom, the King's oppressive rule has left citizens burdened by relentless taxation and a micro-managed existence. Under the guise of unity, the regime enforces Prism Theology, extinguishing individuality and personal faith. "You should have nothing and be happy," the King's decree echoes, justifying the extreme measures to maintain control. Citizens are watched, monitored, and forced to rent their own homes on government-owned land. Inheritances vanish, swallowed by the state, and resistance is crushed. Amidst this bleak landscape, the resistors emerge. United by their faith and the rejection of Prism Theology, they gather in secret tunnels beneath the city, hacking the oppressive laws and building an alliance of unlikely allies. As tension escalates between the King's enforcers and the resistors, a spark of rebellion ignites, culminating in a battle for the soul of the kingdom. The resistors' journey is one of discovery, defiance, and sacrifice. With each chapter, their fight against the King's tyranny unveils a deeper layer of oppression and a yearning for true freedom. As the struggle reaches its peak, the Glass Worldwide Kingdom stands on the precipice of change, and the resistors must decide whether they will be the architects of a new era or succumb to the shadows of the past.
