Super relevant to today's groupthink society
8 February 2023
As we are today living in a world where people adopt points of view with zero critical thinking, only because these viewpoints are fashionable, trendy and virtue-signalling, I found it interesting how this story set in the 1980's reflects the same thing happening in a different context. Vulnerable young people searching for identity get sucked into a seemingly philanthropic cause only to later discover a sinister narcissist is using them for his own power hungry mindgames. Groupthink takes over, no one is willing to point out the emperor's new clothes. I like the grainy 16mm of the film, with it's strong contrast and rich colour palatte. The young actors are compelling.
