Age of Iron (2021)

In Japan, a stressed-out working-class couple cannot fuck anymore. In Myanmar, the ancient forests are now rubber plantations. In Cambodia, Christ undulates on a disappearing lake. In Western China, the Uyghurs are being colonized. In Mongolia, the Gobi desert expands as it is mined for coal. In Bangladesh Tagore is forgotten. In Central Asia rivers are drying up. In Afghanistan war never ends. In India the Buddha is dead. Are the maladies of the Age of Iron connected? Is there a way out? Where does Hopelandia exist? In a nightmare, or in a dream?
