The first chapter of the third season of Black Mirror, which is a Sci-fi chapter called Nosedive, describes a society who are obsessed for get five stars. But, if you want to get the five stars, you will have to be smart and be clean, educated, generous, happy... But which is the problem here? The problem is that doing this they are making a false world where everything that they do are not the things that they would really like to do.
The actress Bryce Dallas Howard, who is who have the role of Lacie, is the protagonist. She is very obsessed with her ranking, and she wants to get more for enter the "social elite" and for move to another house. In the social elite there are the people who have more stars, they have advantages like life in luxury houses, winner some money, show branded bags.... But she needs more stars and if she doesn't arrive to get more stars in two weeks, she can be able to get her new house.
She sees the opportunity of increment her ranking when her childhood friend Naomi (interpreted by Alice Ever) invite she to her wedding. She wants Lacie to be her bridesmaid. Lacie accept, and she starts her travel. Her first problem arrives when she goes to the airport and can't take her flight, she has a big discussion with the airport security and her role lower. From this moment, she has more big adventures.
What I like the best is that it represents a reality that could happen if we remain more of social networks than our day to day.
In conclusion, I recommend this episode, because I think that it is gripping, believable and undforgettable for everyone.
