Ah i must say thar i am a little drawn to tales about those who have mental health challenges. And this is one such tale. The protagonist is a young lady that has difficulty leaving her house. As is the case with most of those that have mental health challenges, she is also very talented and bright and knows her way around the computer. But not just the computer, see she works for a Hardware Company with an assistive tool not unlike Siri and Cortana. Maybe this is a way that these companies have devised to get us to invest in more of these products. There are very interesting scenes about the capabilities of these prodcucts and the idea that they may be recording and storing some of the conversations that they hear. So there is a discussion about Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, Data Collection, Data Processing, Internet Of Things and 5G Technology to name just a few. Then there is a hint towards Privacy, Surveillance, Non Disclosure Agreements and Red Tape.
But there are also great lessons about situatiinal awareness, the importance of being familair with your surroudings especially in emergency situations and great ideas about the use of technology to help in desperate situations.
There is a amazing scene that lets you peep into the world of hacking and the possibilirties that exist once you turn on your phone and how this can be used to locate you as well as turn on your phone when you turn it off. This goes for all gadgets as long as they have sim cards.
The movie features Zoe Kravitz daughter of Singer and Actor Lenny Kravitz.
