I think you'll (mostly) enjoy it, as it's one of these "Art Imitates Life" films that make you think, but it is also quite dark.
Here's the synopsis:
"By 2022, the cumulative effects of overpopulation, pollution and global warming have caused severe worldwide shortages of food, water and housing. New York City has a population of 40 million, and only the elite can afford spacious apartments, clean water, and natural food. The homes of the elite are fortified, with security systems and bodyguards for their tenants. Usually, they include concubines (who are referred to as "furniture"). The poor live in squalor, haul water from communal spigots, and eat highly processed wafers: Soylent Red, Soylent Yellow, and the latest product, far more flavorful and nutritious, Soylent Green."
The fact that it takes place in 2022 is also interesting, and it's germane to your "Bug Post" for sure!
Okay, I have to watch Soylent Green already.

Talk about a good imitation. Thanks, I will definitely take this dose of cinematic depression.
