Indignitas

“If I’d known it was going to end like this, I would have enjoyed myself more.” – Philip Foster
​
Indignitas is a topical, dystopian drama starring Mark Addy and Bethany Antonia. Set in a world where politicians use government funded assisted dying to solve a financial crisis. Mark Addy plays a family man faced with the prospect of making the ultimate sacrifice to secure financial security for his loved ones. ​
 Indignitas takes us through dystopian nightmares, futuristic visions and agonising moral dilemmas. As Philip looks back on his life and contemplates his death he is angered by the warped morals of the lawmakers.  He does, however, find fragments of wry humour reflecting on the absurdity of life and inevitability of death. Will he finally experience the comforting peace of a loving father’s ultimate sacrifice for his children or rail against the dystopian machine?

The film was originally a stage play receiving critical acclaim and enjoying international success at theatre festivals worldwide, including a West-End showcase at the Criterion Theatre and shows in Sydney and Los Angeles.
