“Black Mirror” shows stories that are completed in their episodes as an anthology series. In terms of content, the consequences do not build on each other and have different figures and characters. But you have a connecting topic: it is always about the (negative) effects of technology and media on society and individual people.
The title “Black Mirror” refers to the dark glossy screens in our everyday life, i.e. smartphones, computers and television.
The head and author of the series is the 54 -year -old Englishman Charlie Brooker. The seventh season has a more nostalgic touch compared to previous ones, as Brooker itself says.
