Gattaca

Vincent is one of the last "natural" babies born into a sterile, genetically-enhanced world, where life expectancy and disease likelihood are ascertained at birth. Myopic and due to die at 30, he has no chance of a career in a society that now discriminates against your genes, instead of your gender, race or religion. Going underground, he assumes the identity of Jerome, crippled in an accident, and achieves prominence in the Gattaca Corporation, where he is selected for his lifelong desire: a manned mission to Saturn's 14th moon (titan). Constantly passing gene tests by diligently using samples of Jerome's hair, skin, blood and urine, his now-perfect world is thrown into increasing desperation, his dream within reach, when the mission director is killed - and he carelessly loses an eyelash at the scene! Certain that they know the murderer's ID, but unable to track down the former Vincent, the police start to close in, with extra searches, and new gene tests. With the once-in-a-lifetime launch only days away, Vincent must avoid arousing suspicion, while passing the tests, evading the police, and not knowing whom he can trust...

Brave new world

The DHC, the director of hatcheries and conditioning acts as a teacher, a guide because his students are both obedient and interested indeed. No matter what he says ,they agree so, we guess that every student is stupid, has been brainwashed. As i ‘ve read the book, i know that they have been all conditioned since they were babies for instance, they received electronic shocks if they touched books, flowers and so on and so forth. Sadly enough, in that society they create identical babies, 1 egg generates 96 babies, hence the fact that there is no mother, father or family. Furthermore they are all identified, it means that there are different casts : Alpha- Plus, Alpha, Beta-minus, Epsilon... This is called the Bokanovski process. However, the DHC considers his society as an utopia because there are no wars,troubles,differences...

The question is : would you like to live in that society when you cannot even think by yourself?
