The series available on Netflix reflects the world in which we will soon live, googled and without privacy. Courage, let's run.
Black Mirror wondered, more specifically, about our relationship to technology. This isn't a revelation, Internet has changed our lives. Any scoop, any information, joke, personality is found on facebook, retweeted, Google, Tumblr, laughing sometimes. We are all connected, but sometimes, there are derivatives - reality television, children who aren't really kids, like Baby Scumbag, or the recent 'false alerts to the suspect' on the bombing during the Boston marathon are here to prove it.
Black Mirror is pessimistic, it is a fact. But the series does not have the technology in guilty, simply as the filter, the revealer of the human species - a "black mirror", so...
Some episodes would not agree to sensitive souls, others may rip off a few tears, but none will not leave you indifferent, guaranteed.
Black Mirror alert on possible derivatives of certain technologies and attitudes in general. Away from the conviction, series reveals subtext an acerbic criticism of humanity Western, rich and comfortable, but without ever getting in the judgment or in excess. Because finally, in each episode, there is a real resonance with our current era, which encourages them to think twice.
Finally a smart series that makes us respond to our development and report to the technology. Enjoy !
