Unparent

A futuristic computer world: Two children "learning through play", in a series of subtly aggressive games. They have, however, a secret hiding place, where they reclaim innocent play for themselves as a respite from their harsh training regime. They are finally 'unparented' and released upon the world. An observation on the gamification of work, and the instrumentalization of play in order to teach.
