Bionic, a Brazilian action film exploring the impact of robotic prosthetics on sport, available May 29, 2024 on Netflix.

Bionic, an action-sci-fi film from Brazil, transports us to a dystopian future where technological advances have profoundly altered the sporting landscape. With performances by Gabz, Bruno Gagliasso and Jéssica Córes, the film features an intense and emotional competition between two sisters, Gabi and Maria, whose rivalry reaches new heights thanks to the innovation of robotic prostheses.

In a future where robotic prostheses have transformed sport into a hyper-technological spectacle, Gabi and Maria, two talented sisters, dominate the long jump. However, their sibling competition degenerates into a bitter rivalry that threatens not only their relationship but also their safety. Heitor, the sisters' mentor, and Gustavo, a close friend, find themselves caught up in this passionate struggle, which raises questions about sporting ethics, humanity in the face of technology, and the very nature of competition.

Bionic will appeal to fans of science fiction and action films, as well as sports dramas. The film stands out for its unique approach to sports science fiction, a little-explored genre that questions the impact of technology on human capabilities and the ethical limits of its use in sport. The dynamic between the characters enriches the narrative, adding a personal and emotional dimension to the spectacular aspect of futuristic sports competitions.

With its futuristic setting and profound themes, Bionic promises to be a captivating and visually stunning exploration of the ethical dilemmas humanity may soon face. The film promises not only intense action, but also reflection on the consequences of technological innovations on older traditions, such as sport. Bionic lands on Netflix from May 29, 2024 for a fresh look at the future of competition and brotherhood.
