The Deal (IV) (2022)
6/10
Logan's Walk
5 October 2022
Warning: Spoilers
A pandemic in the future causes the downfall of society and massive deaths. A walled city is run by The Bureau. Food, jobs, and housing is scarce outside of those who work for the Bureau which will provide for you and your family for 20 years if you take "The Deal." After 20 years you die.

Tala (Sumalee Montano) has taken the deal to provide for her daughter Analyn (Emma Fisher) who is now 19. With 5 days to live, they discover Analyn needs a kidney transplant. The Bureau can't schedule one for 6 months, long after the Deal has expired. The twosome scramble to change the date, locate her biological father, or find an escape from city which we are told has death on the outside.

Unless you are a member you have limited benefits, similar to nations run by a communist party or Illuminati. The movie felt like a prequel to something like "Logan's Run" or "In Time." The film was mostly drama and a statement about access to care based on wealth or privilege.

Guide: No swearing, sex, or nudity.
