The Butler Brothers continue with their very particular, dystopian vision of the world with their new animation Refusnik. Like J. G. Ballard before them, the Butler Bros. (aka John Butler) create speculative fictions out of present reality, and both share the author’s antipathy towards technology.

Technology is not our friend, their work says, it is created by corporations to imprison and enslave. This theme is touched upon in Refusnik, where drone technology is fused together with warehouse slavery to create a highly probable and deeply disturbing future.
