You don't have to drive in a DeLorean to understand that we are currently shaping what our future will look like.
After all, when you think about it, in fact today we live in the future.
I mean, in the time period that was called "the future" sometime in the 50s of the last century.
And when people 70 years ago imagined what it would be like in our time, a utopian image emerged with flying cars, robots that do the housework, a colony on the moon and an abundance of optimism.
• After 3 years: "Black mirror" returns
When MDB series today try to describe a futuristic world, it always comes out dystopian and disturbing. Epidemics, poverty, zombies, rampant technology, artificial intelligence that subjugates humanity, and a lot of realistic pessimism that sometimes penetrates reality in one way or another (as it is customary to say: "It's just like in that episode of 'Black Mirror'").
"Hello, Tomorrow!", the first three episodes of which aired this weekend on Apple TV +, presents a futuristic retro world, just as it was imagined in the Fiveties. The screens are still in black and white, the clothes and hairstyles seem to be frozen in time, but the cars hover, the robots pour beer at the bar and change the The pets, and the ties tie themselves.

This deep and witty drama jumps out thanks to a general design in a silly retro tone, which hides a simple story about salesmen marketing a dubious residential project on the moon, in a futuristic world of hope and optimism in the shadow of the decline of capitalism.
"Hello, tomorrow!"
Breaking through the American dream and its brokenness, and building a naive future free of racism and sexism, a future like we forgot it once existed.
