Publisher's Synopsis
Gattaca is a thought-provoking SF film centred on a key contemporary issue - genetic engineering. In this study guide, two experienced teachers (one a film lecturer) offer background on the movie, explaining how to ' read' it in cinematic terms, before taking you through the film, scene by scene, drawing out its 'subtext' in easy to understand language, and offering you key quotes to use. Also offered are generous notes on characters, themes, critical reviews, and finally a full length A+ exam essay on the text.
