Description
Economist Films makes mind-stretching documentaries examining big global themes.
What do the jobs of tomorrow look like? Can you make meat without animals? Will startups take us to the stars? What’s the best way to regulate drugs? What if malaria drugs stop working? What does the future hold? Economist Films makes short, mind-stretching documentaries that examine big global themes. Each one combines analysis, on-the-ground reporting and a dash of humour to capture the essence of The Economist, the leading current-affairs newspaper, in video form.
Download the app and tune in to gain a broader understanding of the forces shaping the future. Available to view:

Failed to connect to server This app seems to have been shut off permanently

I wrote to The Economist: Can you please advise me how to get the Films app working. I'm using Android 11 on a 5G phone with download speed as attached. Many attempts, same dismal outcome: Failed to connect to the server. Perhaps I'm not the first to arrive at this outcome? If the problem is insuperable, or its resolution uneconomic, would you kindly remove from the Play Store.
