If your birth already predetermined your death date, would you still fight for an unattainable dream? In this episode of Delusion, we’re diving into an underrated sci-fi masterpiece, Gattaca. This isn’t just a futuristic prediction about genetic engineering, but also an ode to the unyielding human spirit.

We will delve into the iconic line that set the film world on fire, 'I never saved anything for the swim back,' and discuss how, in today’s hyper-labeled world, we might reclaim the soul lost to data.
