The Discarded
In this raw narrative of endurance, Maggie’s life is overshadowed by the burdens of debt and joblessness. Her dreams of pursuing a nursing career are dashed, leading her to join The Program—a temporary employment scheme that offers the allure of financial liberation. However, Maggie soon realizes that within The Program, the distinction between liberation and servitude becomes increasingly ambiguous as she uncovers the grim realities of existence within the labor camps. Zara Jestadt, a fresh face in the industry, delivers a compelling portrayal in this emotionally intense warning about the erosion of social equality and human rights.
