where is my mind?

in the course of my work on the chapter about science fiction and how you define it, i came to the point where i wanted to list some recent examples of dystopian sci-fi movies that are (and this is the tricky part) not in my sample of films i am going to analyse. Gattaca came to my mind and then 12 Monkeys because i just purchased the DVDs. i watched Gattaca a few days ago so the plot is pretty fresh in my mind. that is, however, not the case with 12 Monkeys and i needed a short explanation why i think this is a dystopian vision of the future. i simply could not remember if the virus that caused the extinction of almost the entire human population in 12 Monkeys is natural or human-made. thanks to almighty Google i quickly found the answer: it is in fact human-made and that made my argument a lot easier.
