Black Mirror: San Junipero (2016)

Mackenzie Davis is just fantastic in everything. Not the usual doom and gloom Black Mirror, at least not on the surface, and I really appreciated how we naturally learn about what is going on with minimal exposition. The world reveals itself naturally. In terms of ambitions, this reaches for the sky with basically trying to find an answer for the meaning of living. Even though that more or less comes rushing at you in the last five minutes. I am somewhat conflicted about the ending. I think it could have been more powerful with another decision, but then again this approach opens up to different interpretations on whether the ending is tragic or happy.
