Can stories be pure escapism and have something to say? Or is that an oxymoron?

Robert McKee famously said, "misusing and abusing art to preach, your screenplay will become a thesis film, a thinly disguised sermon as you strive in a single stroke to convert the world."

Tonight, Luke Deckard and author Derek B Miller (Norwegian By Night, Radio Life, How to Find Your Way in the Dark) will explore the current problems in storytelling across films and tv and the lack of heroism by our "heroes."

They'll ask: have our heroes become infantilised and, by default, the audience? And are our stories thinly veiled theses?
