2081: Everyone will finally be equal (movie trailer)

Freedom and human rights are extraordinary concepts to me. Not because freedom or human rights are extraordinary things, they are quite ordinary really. Something to be expected. They become extraordinary the more I see them denied, refused, taken away, given up, and otherwise contorted.
The trailer for 2081 conveys some of my thoughts and beliefs better than I could convey them myself.
Based on the short story Harrison Bergeron by celebrated author Kurt Vonnegut, 2081 depicts a dystopian future in which, thanks to the 212th Amendment to the Constitution and the unceasing vigilance of the United States Handicapper General, everyone is finally equal… The strong wear weights, the beautiful wear masks and the intelligent wear earpieces that fire off loud noises to keep them from taking unfair advantage of their brains. It is a poetic tale of triumph and tragedy about a broken family, a brutal government, and an act of defiance that changes everything.
It is unclear to me if this will be an extraordinary film, but it’s premise is. Visit the official website. I would encourage you to read the original short story by Kurt Vonnegut. You might also be interested in the 1995 TV film Harrison Bergeron

As an interesting factoid, I stumbled on this trailer after watching this bit of individuality referred from a friend’s blog that is definitely above average.
