REPO

Repo is a surprisingly deep and complex opera. For one, it is an opera, albeit a rock opera. It is sung from beginning to end for all 97 minutes of the film.

I can't help but notice how many paralells with our own world exist in this production. Obsession with physical perfection, to the point at which we forget about our morals and integrity. A single father who will do literally anything just to protect his daughter from the outside world, and even to protect her from himself, to the point where he's even poisoning her just to keep her sick and housebound.

Rotti Largo, the man who saved the world, is now the man who is the cause of the worlds greatest problems.

Is this distopic future one of the many possibilities we face in the future? Maybe...
