    The Platform

    Has anyone seen it? It's on Netflix and was recommended to me out of the blue by my cousin which, having seen it, somewhat concerns me. It is basically a tale of a guy that voluntarily goes into a sort of highrise jail where a platform comes down the levels once a day with food on and the people in the lower levels eat up the food left over from the higher up levels. It is hard to explain the rest not due to spoilers as such but more because i am still getting my head around it. It is an allegory of many things, some blindingly obvious, some not so much. From reviews, people seem to think of it as a horror film apparently along the lines of Saw or Snowpiercer but, having seen neither, I can't comment. However, it more reminded me of Delicatessen and Brazil. I wouldn't say I enjoyed it as such but I was captivated by it and would also recommend it.
