[edit] Plot
France, sometime in the near future. The Sisterhood of Metacontrol governs Europe. Angeline, an exemplary and irreproachable citizen has just joined the Order... But her relationship with a special man, Nono, will make her question profoundly the principles of the Doctrine.
[edit] Notes
FAQ is a rarity in Spanish cinematography, because it is an independent film made in a country that produces almost no science-fiction. FAQ describes a future world entirely ruled by a totalitarian government, following the footsteps of other famous dystopies such as Nineteen Eighty-Four or THX 1138. But, in this case, the totalitarian government is a matriarchy, which has achieved expanding the current "politically correct" discourse up to its paroxysm. This point turns FAQ into a very contemporary and disturbing overview of our present reality's hidden menaces.
