Title: "The Platform", a movie with a Christian message
Post by: Fenris on June 21, 2022, 11:33:35 AM

I just watched a movie on Netflix titled "The Platform". It's the dystopian setting of a vertical prison, rooms upon rooms with a vertical shaft running down the middle. Every day a platform covered with food starts at the top and goes to the bottom. The catch: people up top gorge themselves so that by the time the platform gets to a certain depth there's no food left. Once a month, prisoners swap floors so the well fed this month might starve next month.  We follow the adventure of one such prisoner.

The interesting thing is that it has a very strong Christian message. I won't spoil it in case anyone here wants to see it, unless people don't care or want to discuss it.

Warning: The movie has some rather disturbing scenes that may be unsettling to some.

OK, now I have to go watch it!

I love dystopia.  It reminds me of my homeland...
