Future Darkly: Model Citizen
From the birth of humankind, a select few oppressors have willingly taken up the mantle of managing our lives, a role we should have occupied ourselves. In this act, they seized our power. By our inaction, we surrendered it.
-Alan Moore, V For Vendetta Resident Val (portrayed by Aria Lee) is dutifully positioned in front of a television, her gaze locked onto the screen. In front of her, Mother transmits her daily message of affection, ensuring that her calming voice reaches all. Being an exemplar resident, it's up to Resident Val to fulfill her obligation to society, which encompasses engaging in romantic and sexual encounters strictly with appointed partners of sanctioned genetic compatibility.
When a knock echoes on the door, she promptly responds. Auditor Bale (played by Tyler Nixon) stands in front of her, his commanding presence is one she honors without hesitation. Using a serene yet dominating tone, he declares his purpose of conducting a routine inspection of the residence to confirm that everything is as it should be.
Although Resident Val finds this somewhat suspicious, considering her previous inspection was a mere fortnight ago, she grants him entry. Auditor Bale scrutinizes the premises, verifying that everything is in perfect alignment, particularly when it pertains to receiving Mother's broadcasts. He subsequently queries Resident Val with typical questions to confirm if she's been fulfilling her role as an ideal resident.
Each question amplifies Resident Val's anxiety, yet Auditor Bale seems oblivious. Eventually, it's time for the physical examination to confirm that Resident Val's genetic profile is current. 'Do you comprehend and agree that only Auditors possess the power to deactivate the broadcast, and that as an ideal resident you must never turn it off of your own free will?' Auditor Bale recites, evidently having repeated this statement countless times before.
'Yes,' Resident Val murmurs. As Auditor Bale turns off the surveillance enveloping her, Resident Val's heart races in anticipation of the forthcoming events. Nominated - Outstanding Art Direction, AVN 2020 Nominated - Exceptional Special Effects, AVN 2020.
