Paul Ziller directs this disaster movie following the havoc wreaked
by a giant root system that grows at an exponential rate and tears
through everything in its path. A pair of environmentalists, Kate
(Luisa D'Oliveira) and Joe (Jesse Moss), are among the first to
encounter the bizarre phenomenon of the root, but so great is the
damage it causes that it is soon a matter of widespread concern.
Government agent Jack Taylor (Adrian Pasdar) is one of those tasked
with finding a way to contain the problem and seeks out plant
expert Jocelyn Snow (Stefanie von Pfetten) for her advice. There
are a range of theories on what may lie behind the dangerous plant
system, but Jocelyn is convinced that the seed engineering of Frame
Marcos (James Morrison) is at the heart of it.

'The Left Behind' is a defining motif of contemporary British
political discourse. It is the thread that knits together the 2016
Brexit referendum, the crumbling of the fabled 'Red Wall' in the
North, and the pernicious culture war being waged today. But who
are the Left Behind? James Morrison goes in search of the reality
behind the rhetoric, offering the first comprehensive, historical
analysis of the origins, uses and meanings of the term. He
interrogates the popular archetype of the Left Behind - as a
working class, leave-voting white male from a former industrial
heartland - and situates the concept in the context of
longstanding, demonising discourses aimed at communities seen as
backward and 'undeserving'. Analysing national newspaper coverage
and parliamentary discussions, and drawing on interviews with MPs,
community leaders, charities and people with direct lived
experiences of poverty and precarity, The Left Behind grapples with
the real human cost of austerity for neglected post-industrial
communities and other marginalised groups across the world, and the
stigmatising discourse that does little to serve them.

Scroungers, spongers, parasites ... These are just are some of the
terms that are typically used, with increasing frequency, to
describe the most vulnerable in our society, whether they be the
sick, the disabled, or the unemployed. Long a popular scapegoat for
all manner of social ills, under austerity we've seen hostility
towards benefit claimants reach new levels of hysteria, with the
'undeserving poor' blamed for everything from crime to even rising
levels of child abuse. While the tabloid press has played its role
in fuelling this hysteria, the proliferation of social media has
added a disturbing new dimension to this process, spreading and
reinforcing scare stories, while normalising the perception of
poverty as a form of 'deviancy' that runs contrary to the
neoliberal agenda. Provocative and illuminating, Scroungers
explores and analyses the ways in which the poor are portrayed both
in print and online, placing these attitudes in a wider breakdown
of social trust and community cohesion.
