The Assessment

Storyline

referencennTotal environmental meltdown—no joke, the planet’s cooked. Some people, the privileged ones, have bailed on old reality and built their own slick, parallel society. Everything’s monitored, even who gets to have kids. You’d think love and family would be a private thing, right? Nope, not here. There’s this young, on-the-rise couple, basically living under a microscope. For one intense week, a sharp-eyed assessor lady shadows their every move, digging deep into their relationship, habits, and, honestly, their hopes and flaws. The system wants to make sure only the “right” folks bring new life into this super-controlled world. Tension’s high, secrets bubble up, and you start to wonder if happiness can survive when everything’s planned out for you. It’s unsettling—the whole vibe’s cold and clinical, but the couple’s struggle to stay human under all that scrutiny? That’s where it hits hard. Makes you question what freedom even means when society’s pulling every string.
