Overview

This animated short revolves around the events causing an electrical systems failure on the west coast of the US. According to Blade Runner 2049’s official timeline, this failure leads to cities shutting down, financial and trade markets being thrown into chaos, and food supplies dwindling. There’s no proof as to what caused the blackouts, but Replicants — the bio-engineered robots featured in the original Blade Runner, are blamed.

Viewing Notes

This is a p cool short film and prequel to Blade Runner 2049 set in the mid 2020s. Didn’t even know this thing existed until it popped up on my timeline. Apparently there’s two short films set in this pre-2049 timeline.
