White bear is the name of the episode in a Netflix
series called “Black Mirrors”. The story begins with a disoriented woman,
Victoria, in a chair. The woman has multiple “clues” as to what happened to her
such as the as scars on her wrist, pills on the floor, and a picture of a
little girl. The audience is forced to believe that the woman possibly tried to
kill herself and that something happened to her daughter. The show goes on to
show people acting like zombie but instead of eating your brains, they’re
recording you. They became that way because of a signal that was broadcasted
that triggered something in their brain. This makes them become mindless individuals
that can only filmed and recorded. We’re later told that it was all not real.
None of it. The truth was that Victoria and her fiancé kidnapped a little girl
and killed her. Victoria did not partake in the action of killing her but she
recorded it. The community felt as if they deserved justice for what was done
to the girl. So every day they stage the day. She goes the day trying to figure
out who she is, why is she being chased, why are people recording, the evil
truth, and being forcefully shocked to sleep while people stage a scene that
will leave you wondering. They call themselves White Bear Justice Park but is
it really justice. Victoria loses all her memories besides the constant
glitches in her brain where she sees the images of the little girl. Is that
justice? The line between right and wrong lays thin.She is constantly going through hell while people stand of the
sidelines recording just like today’s society. Often times when something
happens the first thing a person does is pull out their phone to record. When a
fight breaks out no one tries to break it up. You’ll most likely hear someone
yell “WORLDSTARRRR” as someone gets stomped or jabbed. The person could be
bleeding to death but no one stops to help. No one says “Hey, maybe this is
wrong.” They disregard right from wrong just as the people did that recorded
the helpless woman in White Bear.
