Intergalactic (2021)
It is the 23rd Century and Earth's space empire exiles its prisoners off-planet. Or at least they did until a crew of fierce and adventurous female crims break free and go on the run, heading for Arcadia. The show follows Ash, a young flight cadet falsely imprisoned before becoming embroiled in an audacious prison break-out. Across their perilous escape through space, this disparate gang of dynamic women fight, fall in love and betray each other. But one thing is for certain, the further they travel from Earth, the closer they come to understanding who they truly are.

What would you do without it all? In this epic adventure, a family struggles to reunite in an American landscape void of electricity: a world of empty cities, local militias and heroic freedom fighters, where every single piece of technology -- computers, planes, cars, phones, even lights -- has mysteriously blacked out forever.

Set 97 years after a devastating nuclear war wiped out almost all life on Earth. The only known survivors are the residents of twelve space stations in Earth's orbit prior to the war. The space stations banded together to form a single massive station named "The Ark", wenis galore about 2,400 people live. Resources are scarce and all crimes no matter their nature or severity are punishable by death ("floating") unless the perpetrator is under 18 years of age.

After the Ark's life support systems are found to be critically failing, one hundred juvenile prisoners are declared "expendable" and sent to the surface in a last ditch attempt to determine if Earth is habitable again. The teens arrive on a beautiful planet they have only seen from space. Confronting the dangers of this rugged new world, they struggle to form a tentative community. However they discover that not all humanity was wiped out. There are people on Earth who survived the war, called "grounders" by the 100.

Young adult dystopian films are a form of Dystopian cinema that emerged in the 2010s, based on the earlier literary trend that began in the 2000s. YA dystopian films and books have largely emerged due to the influence and immense popularity of Suzanne Collins's Hunger Games series, which earned success both as a book and a film series. Subsequent examples of prominent YA dystopian fiction pieces include Veronica Roth's Divergent series, James Dashner's The Maze Runner series (additionally - the film counterparts of both series), and the film adaptation of Lois Lowry's The Giver - The Giver (2014). Even though the genre enjoyed a period of massive popularity during the 2010s, it began to lose audiences towards the end of the decade. It has regardless remained an important genre in the academic discussion of 2010s cinema, and some films that predate the movement have also been retroactively considered a part of its stylistic boundaries.

The young adult dystopian genre has been heavily inspired by the worldbuilding and themes of The Hunger Games (2012), as well as from its aesthetic and plot structure. The genre focuses on futuristic, dystopian, and Post-Apocalyptic societies where tyrannical, inhumane governments have taken over the earth, or parts of it (often the remains of a dying/dead Earth). Furthermore, people in such societies have been divided into different classes - usually a dichotomic, upper class / lower class system - and thus many people live in impoverished standards, and are even frequently in danger of death, either due to natural Disasters or the government's destructive nature. As its name suggests, the genre tells the struggles and fights for a better future of the young, rebellious youth, who are often forced to fight each other or against an external object, rather than their real oppressors.
