ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
"Redshirts" by John Scalzi is a science fiction novel that uses metafiction to explore the lives of the crew aboard the Intrepid, the flagship of the Universal Union. The ensigns, particularly those in the security division, notice their missions often involve dangerous and absurd situations with a high mortality rate. They come to believe that they are characters in a low-budget science fiction television show, whose writers prioritize exciting and dramatic scenarios over the safety of the characters. Determined to break free from this deadly narrative, they embark on a quest to confront their creators in Hollywood. The novel is a humorous and thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between fiction and reality, the power of narrative, and the ethical considerations of those who control it.
