Australian filmmaker George Miller has been shaping our vision of a post-apocalyptic future for the past 45 years, since his Mad Max roared onto screens in 1979.

His 2015 installment Mad Max: Fury Road could be one of the best films of the 21st century, a dusty, fuel-injected chase across the desert that synthesises everything wrong with a toxic patriarchy in which an elite ruling class hoards resources while exploiting the bodies of women and young men, dehumanising the poor.
