The Social Experiment
The gripping sci-fi thriller was the first German feature film to be shot in an LED studio and deals with friendship, manipulation and social media. Jackpot! Adrian and his clique are lured into an “Escape Room Adventure”. But the supposedly harmless recreational fun turns out to be a perfidious behavioural analysis experiment conducted by two scientists. In order to be able to tailor the games exactly to the strengths, weaknesses and characteristics of the clique, they have programmed an AI. And this starts to play the friends off against each other and confront them with their deepest fears – a fight to the death begins.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a claustrophobic thriller that relies on the pervasive anxiety of social control and algorithmic predation. It explores how easily curated digital pressures can fracture the bonds of friendship, turning trust into a vulnerability.
What lingers after the credits is a chilling contemplation of how our own data could be weaponized. The experiment feels less like fiction and more like a logical endpoint for the surveillance age. — MovieFinder Editorial
