RT Journal Article SR Electronic(1) A1 Leyda, JuliaYR 2018 T1 Petropolitics, cli-fi and Occupied JF Journal of Scandinavian Cinema, VO 8 IS 2 SP 83 OP 101 DO https://doi.org/10.1386/jsca.8.2.83_1 PB Intellect, SN 2042-7905, AB Abstract One of a growing group of television series that can be classified as climate fiction, Occupied takes as its premise a hostile political response to Norway’s sudden move towards energy transition. Occupied draws on the long tradition of the Norwegian occupation drama, while also resonating with contemporary tensions between Russia and its neighbours. Mobilizing familiar structures of feeling common to many cli-fi texts as well as recent news cycles, Occupied brings together the genre conventions of political thrillers, occupation dramas and extreme weather/disaster films. With its ensemble cast that explores the conflicting loyalties and personal stakes involved in the emerging crisis, the series portrays the complexities of its fictional petropolitics as a layered accumulation of historical and recent memory shot through with personal and political investments of every conceivable kind that premediate possible futures in the Anthropocene., UL https://intellectdiscover.com/content/journals/10.1386/jsca.8.2.83_1
