In his 2020 film , writer-director Brandon Cronenberg explores the terrifying intersection of identity, technology, and corporate control. The film follows Tasya Vos, an elite corporate assassin who uses brain-implant technology to inhabit the bodies of others to carry out high-profile hits. While ostensibly a sci-fi thriller, the movie functions as a deeply unsettling meditation on the fragility of the self in an age of surveillance capitalism. The Dissolution of Self through Labor
Tasya Vos’s profession requires her to be a literal "blank slate" to effectively pilot her hosts. This complete immersion into someone else’s persona leads to a profound erosion of her own identity. Even when she returns to her own life, she must "rehearse" banal interactions with her estranged family, highlighting how her work has hollowed out her humanity.
