A futuristic scifi comedy where women rule the world and men dream of getting married during a male beauty pageant.
Film Synopsis:
Galaxy 360: A Woman's Playground: The year is 2195: women rule the world, men dream of getting married, and you're invited to the most watched reality show of the future, Victor's Angels Mr. World Beauty Pageant. The pageant features the giant media personality, Illumina, who whips the men into shape as they dream of winning The Golden Phallickorn Crown, a prize that will raise the men's social and economic status. Go behind-the-scenes and witness the men primp and preen, worry about being handsome, stress about being fat, and reveal all their insecurities while the female judges oogle the men and decide which one of them has the best abs and the sexiest demeanor. A dystopian romance emerges between Illumina and one of the contestants, and we are confronted with questions about love, sex and fairness in 2195. Galaxy 360: A Woman's Playground is a comedy with a poignant message - it shines a mirror on today's gender stereotypes, and reverses them before your eyes.
