There’s always a special spot for films and series based on unique concepts and that’s exactly what can be said for the Spanish sci-fi thriller film we are going to discuss in this article.
Titled as ‘The Platform’ (Spanish: El Hoyo), this sci-fi horror-thriller is based on a very interesting concept where the story is set in a futuristic prison which is a large, tower-style “Vertical Self-Management Center”.
The inmates are switched randomly every month and are fed via a platform which, initially filled with food at the top floor, gradually descends through the tower’s levels. This ultimately is bound to lead to a rebellion with people on the lower levels getting leftovers and some getting nothing.
Directed by Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia, ‘The Platform’ stars Iván Massagué, Antonia San Juan, Zorion Eguileor, Emilio Buale and Alexandra Masangkay. ‘The Platform’ is 2019 film streaming on Netflix currently.
