Episode description
In the 1997 film Gattaca, the camera zooms in on a laboratory where embryos are meticulously selected for their genetic perfection. In this creative adaptation of a dystopian future society, genetic engineering and eugenics are the norm, creating a rigid class system based on genetic makeup.
