It’s a Mad Max World

George Miller sits in his office, surrounded by storyboards and miniature car models. He explains how the idea for 'Mad Max' emerged from observing Australian highways and his personal experiences in an emergency room. This 2025 documentary immerses viewers into the director's creative laboratory, tracing the journey from a low-budget debut to an epic futuristic saga. The film features archival footage, interviews with Mel Gibson, Tom Hardy, and Charlize Theron, alongside rare behind-the-scenes moments from the sets. It explores how Miller's personal trauma and social observations transformed into a universal mythology of survival and obsession. This is a voyage through five decades of cinematic obsession, where every wrecked vehicle and sandstorm tells its own story.
