With the exemplary use of Darian Quan's cinematography, Empathy, Inc.'s new sci-fi thriller pulls audiences into its realm almost immediately. The film provides parallels with "Black Mirror" in conjunction with its eerie feel and discourse with the world of virtual reality and advanced technology. Mark Lidner's screenplay does an excellent job of making the viewer feel the intense discomfort and uneasiness that Joel (Zack Robidas) and Jessica (Kathy Searle) feel throughout the film. Empathy, Inc. is an engrossing film, one in which I would highly recommend, as it made me question the imminent danger our society potentially awaits with the ever-progressing innovation of electronics.
