Black Mirror collection

An implant that replays every memory frame by frame, a social score from 0 to 5 that decides access to housing, a smile calibrated to the point of exhaustion: Charlie Brooker only needs one idea and one hour to turn the viewer's stomach! Launched in 2011 on Channel 4 before finding a home at Netflix, his anthology wraps up each story in a single stroke, with no recurring hero and no reassuring sequel. The common thread is in the title: a smooth, dark surface that always ends up reflecting whoever is looking at it. The electric romance of San Junipero, Robert Daly's space tyranny in USS Callister or the remote control handed to the viewer for the length of Bandersnatch have become shortcuts for talking about our era. And when the screen goes dark, it's the figures of the most troubling characters that take over the reflection!
