In a world obsessed with algorithms, curated lives, and the illusion of perfection, The Giver asks: What are we sacrificing for convenience?
Jonas lives in a “utopia” where emotions are medicated away, choices are made by AI, and conformity is enforced under the guise of safety. But when he’s chosen as the next Receiver of Memory, he unlocks the dangerous truth, that his society has erased pain, but also love, art, and freedom.
As Jonas uncovers the dark reality behind “release”, he must decide: Does he uphold the system, or risk everything to bring back what’s been lost?
A chilling reflection on culture, privacy, and suppression, this take on The Giver forces us to confront: Would we trade humanity for harmony?
September 13th at 8pm and September 14th at 3pm.
