What is an “assessment”, a film that everyone is talking about

GradeNew Prime Video Foilm, recalls several ways to The story of the maidThe field of both dystopia report a world in which a tyrannical state closely controls human reproduction and paternity. They also share the script that starting a child is the state, and it carefully monitors. But while in the adaptation of Margaret Etwood, the system is based on religious fanaticism, the Fleur Fortuné film is getting closer to the utilitarian. In the world, the presented script of John Donnelli, Nell Garfat Cox and Dave Thomas, it is necessary to demonstrate that the child can be educated. In addition, following very high standards for demand for power.

Thus, the tape begins from a complex point. In a not very remote future, the world lost the tragedy that the plot does not explain too much. The only thing that is clear is that the catacts brought with them the need to preserve, how little he survived. Something, which allowed to create a medicine that unnaturally lengthens life – a couple of characters exceeds the eyelids – and supports young people. Thus, the population of the planet is strictly controlled. And this control falls to the decision, who can have a child. Except, Follow how it will be educated and how useful a child is for a society in which he will be part.

To tell a similar panorama, the tape follows the marriage formed by Aarian (Himesh Patel) and Mia (Elizabeth Olsen). Both want to be parents, but in order to achieve this, they must approve a strict assessment. Theoretically, the process will have to demonstrate their ability to teach a child to be an exemplary citizen, a complex concept on the tape. But much more, demonstrate that they know about the enormous responsibility that this entails, given that few people can access this privilege. Thus, they will have to get Virginia (Alicia Vikander) in their home section, official, responsible for her hidden paternity skills. Only, unexpectedly cruel and even forcibly.

Dark metaphor about being a father

The process is becoming more and more unbearable, since Virginia demonstrates that the test requires something more than knowledge. Follow the couple while they have sex until they lead themselves to life and annoy. The latter, in order to check skills such as patience and sympathy. Step by step, the official becomes an uncomfortable presence, and then, a little less than unbearable for marriage. Consequently, the conspiracy then proposes to approve the assessment, it passes through Virginia and pleases. Both in his role as an agent of the cold system As an uncontrolled baby who plays more and more often.

Through this paradox – asking that someone will have a child – Grade You also ask questions about power and manipulation. Virginia, made and the right woman, pretends to be that she is visible, will try the boundaries of the pair in which she is located. But the truth is that there are no slightest instructions about If your method is the work of your inspiration or in fact, this happens in all cases.

In fact, in a brilliant turn, the script assumes that it is not known with confidence what the procedure is to accept as parents. So Virginia could make an malicious production or abuse the boundaries of her position. Everything, in a series of increasingly complex, dubious and even violent situations. The argument deepens its characters through the type of sophisticated aggression. Virginia pretends to be a little girl, but does not forget that he has the power to authorize. So its final decision can destroy life and mine. Thus, the tension between everything is becoming more unbearable and harmful.

From the usual

With a visual section that shows a dehumanized and isolated world through wide single landscapes, Grade It has a melancholy and then pessimistic air. And although he does not build the entire universe in which the characters live, this gives it clearly: in addition to this hypersified territory, there is only desolation. Thus, it is necessary to obey the rules – even the most crazy – to survive. Or, at least, and, as the painful final part of the tape shows, is trying to have a goal in order to continue.

Brilliant, perverted and sometimes claustrophobic, Grade It represents your characters torture to question the cause of their existence. In particular, Mia is a convincing scientist who wants to be a mother until Virginia’s frauds are forced to ask him the cost of his desire. Elizabeth Olsen makes his character more than a victim of circumstances. So through this plot he asks questions about the future and pain.

For your cooling finale,Grade Leave aside the black dyes of humor to concentrate on the suffering of their characters. The turn that gives it unexpected humanity, as well as the second dark reading. To be a father is more than just a future plan. In addition, this is the ability to change – or not – the world, as mine discovers. A strange touching message for non -traditional dystopia.
