    The Assessment (2025)

    In the near future where parenthood is strictly controlled, a couple's seven-day assessment for the right to have a child unravels into a psychological nightmare.

    Starring Elizabeth Olsen, Himesh Patel, Alicia Vikander, Indira Varma, Nicholas Pinnock and Minnie Driver

    There is a whole mini sub plot about Elizabeth Olsen and a Black Man in this project.

    Also Nicholas Pinnock and Charlotte Ritchie are a BM/WW couple who are featured throughout the film. Later in the film another Black Man is shown to be married to an Asian Woman.

    Spoilers below.

    So while Elizabeth is with a non white man in this movie it is later revealed that when she was a student she had a long term affair with her Black Professor (Played by Nicholas Pinnock) the movie suggests she still harbors some sexual/romantic feelings for him, but it's largely in the past and her character even makes reference to the fact that she still has a lot of respect for him as a teacher.

    Later his new wife who is also a white woman, played by Charlotte Ritchie seems uncomfortable about his past relationship. Minnie Driver stokes the coals of drama and it's essentially implied that their relationship was very passionate and that both still harbor feelings for one another. It's implied/suggested that they only ended up with their current partners now because of social politics of this dystopian world and that sexually and romantically they were a more compatible couple.

    The movie itself has some....interesting male/female politics going on but this is worth noting about how it plays out. This is one of the few movies I've seen in years where Black/dark skinned men are the only men shown on the screen and all are seen as the elite choice for women to partner with. Don't think this was fully intended with the messaging of the film, but it's clear the director has a type...consciously or unconsciously.

    I found a short clip on Vimeo and a spoiler-filled synopsis at Africine.org.







    Amazon offers previously owned DVD copies of the movie.

    Where can I watch this? I found out the movie was out to the public March 21st but I cant seem to find it anywhere. I'm usually pretty good with finding movies online.

    @SilverSmith I gotta assume maybe he's asking where he can stream/download a pirated copy of the film. Becuz if you're "pretty good with finding movies online" as he says, finding a legit legal copy to stream/purchase/rent would be easy to find with a simple google search.

    I recognized what he was looking for; I could have simply directed him to Flixtor, EZTV, YTS, and Torrent Galaxy, or I could've taken the initiative to find the stream or torrent myself. Nonetheless, since I decided years ago to stop pirating content, I proposed some other alternatives.

    It is unfortunate if my responses fall short of his expectations; however, I'm proud to be the only one who tried to help.
