OK Rien, here it is. In a movie set in the future, the world was overpopulated and there was not enough food. Soylent Green was a food that was produced and given out by the government to the people. People also went to die in a nice environment where videos (movies) of the past were shown when the earth had beautiful fields and lush plants. People could die a pieceful death and their last memories would be pleasant ones of the way things used to be. Some people got curious and wondered where the bodies went. It was later discovered that those bodies were the main ingredient in Soylent Green. I have not seen the movie in many years, but hopefully that was at least somewhat accurate. Others can add more if my explanation was not entirely right. Now go have some guacomole.
