The Replicant in the Refugee Camp by Jetse De Vries

The Replicant in the Refugee Camp

By

Description

A world barely recovered from Covid-19 is captivated by ‘Who is the Replicant’, a reality event in which ten participants—one a replicant—perform tasks in a refugee camp on a Greek island, where circumstances are dire and riots a regular occurrence. Their efforts to improve the situation in the derelict camp—in combination with an uncontrolled influx of avant-garde gadgets, bleeding-edge tech and experimental drugs—pave the way for the refugees to take their fate in their own hands, leapfrogging existing technologies and uplifting all as the future arrives, extremely unevenly distributed. Yet many problems lurk beneath the surface: diseases, traumas, right-wing provocateurs and personal conflicts. Events intensify and developments accelerate, so fast and furious that not even the producers of the reality event can keep up, and it becomes ever more difficult to find out who the replicant really is. What does it mean to be human if not all humans are treated equally? Will the Replicant be unmasked? Or do other events take precedence?
