| Stylish, consequent but a little bit unrewarding

The Movies narrative follows a similar premise as the Movie Gattaca: The new Society pays great Attention to Heritage, just like the older aristocratic one, but now disguised as science. The price is the freedom of the civil society. The power in Trust Wohltat lies as in Gattaca in the hand of an industrial-medical Complex.

If we move away the Science Fiction from the Movie, we discover a basic Truth about human Live: Everything a human being is, he owes to his parents and society. The story in Trust Wohltat alienates this common place by removing any love and kindness between the Generations and society regarding the single human Being.

This artistic Decision makes the Movie a little unrewarding to watch, because there are no likable Protagonists in it (the fewer Words somebody says here, the more likable he or she appears).

This Criticism aside, it is well pictured and very consequent in its Style and in the Script.

Quotes

Rainer Friedemann: You see, nature has made a mistake, it's not our fault. After all, miscarriages of weak or deformed children are nothing else than a natural form of... abortion.
