Stuck in a COVID-19 created cell that looks suspiciously like your own living room, staring at the same person for hours on end?

Why not watch a movie about people stuck in a room worse than yours, and definitely without your choices of snacks…

The Platform

The Platform

Now streaming on Netflix, this Spanish-language (English dubbed) film is a bit different, to say the least.

Synopsis:


A vertical prison with one cell per level. Two people per cell. One only food platform and two minutes per day to feed from up to down. An endless nightmare trapped in The Hole.


Written by David Desola and directed by Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia, The Platform isn’t subtle in its messaging, but the intimate cast of Ivan Massague, Zorion Eguileor, Antonia San Juan, Emilio Burale, and Alexandra Masangkay certainly keeps things interesting.

Have a listen, then let us know how we did.
