Vallvidrera, near Barcelona, has a curling club. Each season, the members of the club go to the local reservoir and toss a stone in to see if the ice is strong enough to play. Since the water never freezes, they go for brunch instead and raise the toast, ‘We shall play one day’.

I don't think the science fiction itself needs to be optimistic. I think there needs to be some optimism that there will be a future (aside from the pure "yes, time indeed moves forward" sort).
Huh. I defer to your expertise, but is it actually true that SF thrives with optimism about the future? Star Trek is one mode, but isn't dystopian a subgenre that thrives when it needs to thrive?

Poques coses m’agraden més que les ficcions que parlen del món del cinema.
Però és que, a més, el segon capítol de #TheStudio és una OBRA MESTRA de la comèdia.

Qui vulgui veure sencera "Llum, foc, destrucció!", la docusèrie sobre l'arribada de Bola de Drac a Catalunya i el seu impacte (que ha escrit i codirigit un servidor), ho podrà fer l'1 de maig dins la programació del BCN Film Fest. Serà abans que s'estreni a la plataforma 3Cat, on arribarà aviat.
