Journal (4/5~4/11)

I want to introduce a movie “Gattaca,”which is about “Genetic engineering.”
In the not-too-distant future, the gene technology can analyze human beings’ DNA and determine where you belong in life, when the embryo just forming.
The leading role in the movie called Vincent Freeman who wants to travel the Saturn. However, Vincent is one of the last "natural" babies born into a sterile, genetically-enhanced world, where life expectancy and disease likelihood are ascertained at birth. Therefore, Vincent becomes one of the underclass of humans that are only useful menial jobs. In order to move ahead, he assumes the identity of Jerome Morrow. Jerome Morrow is a perfect genetic specimen but he was crippled in an accident. Vincent uses Jerome’s blood and urine to pass the gene test in the Gattaca Corporation where he can achieve his dream: travel the Saturn. However, at this time, a colleague is killed, others colleagues suspects his origins and the police start to investigate.
After seeing this movie, I think this movie is think-provoking
