(vn) SITTER ISLAND - The Dissidents (digital version)
Life is good on Sitter Island. Its Governor guarantees you a happiness that has become unattainable on the Old Continent. There, pandemics, fires, and climate change have made life unbearable! At least, that's what the advertisements that encourage citizens from all over the world to emigrate there are trying to convince you. This is the island where Laura-Jane and Assane Kouyaté live, two journalists whose secret project will force them to relentlessly thwart the surveillance of the secret services. Because once on the Island, it's impossible to escape. The Governor reigns like a dictator, not hesitating to force the population to obey the dubious algorithms he has designed by the Citizen Society. Despite everything, at the risk of their lives, a group of dissidents is determined to turn the situation around!
Sitter Island is a thriller set in a country run by algorithms that are supposed to make life easier and safer for its citizens, but whose intentional biases lead them in a completely different direction.
Despite the traps set for them, will Laura-Jane and Assane Kouyaté succeed in achieving their ideal of freedom?
