Choice of the week
Constellation
This space thriller is filled with visual effects and clever storytelling, creating a tense and dizzying experience. Noomi Rapace stars as Jo, an astronaut fighting to save her damaged spacecraft and maintain her mental stability. The story begins with Jo dealing with the aftermath of her traumatic experience in space, while also facing a potential allegorical situation of isolation with her daughter Alice on Earth. However, the plot is not linear and offers multiple timelines and perspectives, leading back to the terrifying malfunction on Jo’s mission that presents an impossible decision. Despite its complexity and ambiguity, the core of the story remains the emotional and psychological distance between Jo and her daughter.

New Model Agency
Zebedee Talent is not a typical modeling agency. Instead, it aims to push boundaries in the fashion industry by promoting diversity and inclusivity. This includes representing individuals who use wheelchairs, identify as trans or non-binary, or have disabilities. Some of Zebedee’s featured models include Jasroop Singh, who has vitiligo, and Ellie Goldstein, who has Down syndrome. The series follows Zebedee’s models as they confidently walk the runway and prepare for London Fashion Week, just like other models in the industry.

Life Uncovered
Ben Zand, a journalist, fully immerses himself in unconventional communities similar to how Louis Theroux did during the culture war era. He interacts with biohackers seeking immortality, men who have adopted female identities for practical rather than existential reasons, and a notable figure named Oli London who initially transitioned to a Korean female identity but is now transitioning back to a white, English male identity. Unfortunately, London has succumbed to the unsurprising pattern of praising Donald Trump and criticizing “wokeness.”

Is it possible for me to share a secret with you?
The negative aspects of social media should be evident to us all at this point. This captivating documentary series, which draws on research by the Guardian’s Sirin Kale, presents a strong argument for completely abandoning smartphones. Over a period of many years and across various platforms, Matthew Hardy assumed false identities and manipulated his way into the lives of numerous women. Several of his victims share their experiences of fear and trauma, but perhaps even more damaging were the broken relationships and loss of trust in others. This serves as a warning, effectively presented.

Avatar: The Last Airbender
The new live-action adaptation of the popular animated series demonstrates the pros and cons of changing formats. Visually, it is impressive with its portrayal of the fantastical elements of the plot, such as the manipulation of the four elements and Aang’s journey to defeat the Fire Nation. However, some have raised concerns about alterations made to certain characters, particularly Katara’s motherly role. It may be best to approach this version with an open mind and judge it on its own merits.

Jenny Slate is an experienced expert.
You may recognise the versatile and prolific comic Jenny Slate from her parts in Girls and Parks and Recreation, her long-running voice turn in Bob’s Burgers or her regular spot on Saturday Night Live. This is her second full-length standup special. Here, she turns her sardonic attention to everything from the physical side-effects of motherhood to the sheer horror of being asked to get on a bike during a romantic weekend in Amsterdam (“How dare you assume that someone would do sports with you in another country?”).
On Friday, February 23, Prime Video will be available.
