Black Mirror is a sci-fi serie, it’s set in the present/future days and sometimes in the past, it’s about the present problems with the technology. Nosedive is an episode set in a fictitious world that your social class is decided by your rating, this ratings are got thank to the people, who can rate each other from one to five stars for every interaction they have.
If you have a high rating, you have more opportunities in everything you do.
The main character is played by Bryce Dallas ( Lacie ), a young woman obsessed for her ratings, she has an unique chance to be the maid of honor for her oldest friend from the childhood, Naomie ( Alice Eve ). Naomie is a popular person with a high rating who is among a more persons with a high ratings, then, Lacie wants to be there to increase her rating. If she went to the wedding, she would go up her rating, to achieve a big discount in her dream’s house.
What I loved is the conversation that Lacie had with an old driver ( who had a low rating ) , the old driver was talking with her that also she had been an obsessed with her ratings, if I had gotten a higher rating, she would have been happier , the old driver was thinking in this during a lot of years, until, she realised that she didn’t need it. This conversation reminds me that nowadays a lot of persons need have a high number of followers in the social networks to be happy, when in fact, we don’t need them, it is just a number.
In my opinion, “Black Mirror “ is probably the most realistic serie at all times, it can show you all the society’s problems in one episode, also all the endings will take you by surprise. I’ll recommend Black Mirror if anyone asks me for a good serie.
