The Platform

Martin, a forty-year-old programmer, finds his social media account on "The Platform" hacked. Instead of his usual feed of memes and news, the algorithm starts showing him content exclusively about gardening, classical music, and Stoic philosophy. His attempts to regain control of his feed turn into an absurd battle with a faceless customer service, where each step only solidifies this new, imposed digital identity. This 2025 satirical comedy explores the paradoxes of algorithmic determinism and our dependency on digital personas, blurring the lines between the real self and what artificial intelligence thinks of us. The director creates a grotesque world where the protagonist is forced to embrace a life designed by a code glitch, questioning who truly curates our identity in the age of social media.
