If I couldn’t have dreams, I would never experience flying in a weird double jump system thing 💔

This should have just been a black mirror episode. It don’t world build enough and the themes weren’t fleshed out enough.

Could have used another 15-30 minutes to develop some things a bit further, but lovely as it stands. At one moment towards the end, I did remember that surrogate pregnancies already exist, and it gave me another lens to view the film through.
