Black Mirror s03e01 "Nosedive"



This is one of my favourite episodes of the fantastic series Black Mirror. It explores the mainly negative effects of technology on human relations. In this episode, society and behaviour are regulated by an SNS-style ranking system. Rank is collected like capital and used as a kind of currency for various transactions. People are superficially nice to each other to obtain a higher self-rank.
