Gattaca is a science fiction film that focuses on biology and technology and the possibilities the two could create in the distant future. In a world where there are genetically engineered humans (valids) and biological born humans(in-valids), Vincent, an in-valid, teams up with Jerome, a valid, to achieve his dreams of going to space. Gattaca uses color schemes, montages, and mise-en-scene as rhetorical devices to further bring the viewer into Vincent’s world, and to tell the story between the defiance of limitations and the battle of identity. It is a great film that subtly highlights certain social issues occurring as of now, while telling a story of bravery and courage despite barriers put into place.
