Gendertrification???

We've seen onscreen depictions of what life would be like for the last man in the world. That is NOT the plight of Andrew Myers. He, at 37 years old, is the YOUNGEST man in the world. "How?" you ask. If you ask any present day woman, she'll just say "Praise Nature." Welcome to the mockumentary known as "No Men Beyond This Point."

This comedy-documentary written, produced and directed by Mark Sawers follows the effects of parthenogenesis, an evolutionary phenomenon that first surfaced in 1953 that lead to women reproducing asexually. The coverage switches back and forth between historical footage and Andrew's present day life as a housekeeper for Tara & Iris, a couple with 4 children. Tara is a straight laced, pro-woman who sees men as cheap labour, while her partner Iris, believes that the world could possibly be better with more men. The movie uses footage and expert analysis to discuss everything from the fall of Christianity to the unification of the world's nations as the male species becomes more scarce as not only are women experiencing fatherless births, but they're also giving birth almost exclusively to female children (until Andrew). The doc explores the rise of women as the dominant species and how even terminology, theories and thoughts relating to men are increasingly remote.

All seems lost as the disenfranchised men attempt to rise up. With the government focused on things they feel are more important to the continued evolution of women, men are herded on reservations and monitored until death. 

While the film, isn't extraordinary it takes an interestingly comical view at men and what the world would be like without them (in control). It's written solid and executed well. Few mockumentaries possess that "umph" and this is no exception. it IS, however a refreshing change from the overdone lost video camera footage angle. Check it out when you get a chance...
