Uddrag
1) Give a short summary of the depicted (= det portrætterede) society and people
A woman named Lacie Pound is desperate to boost her social media score.

Lacie tries to get the highest possible score, because she needs a score on 4.5 to get 20% discount when she buys the luxury house. Lacie hit the jackpot when one of her “best” friend invited Lacie to her wedding.

But the drip doesn’t go as planned, when Lacie are going to the plane with a score on 4.183 but you need 4.2 to get on the plane.

Lacie gets mad at the guard and gets many of her points taken away from her. Lacie ends up striving so much for a higher ranking that it has a negative effect on her.

1b) Comment on the use of colors and the associations you get
There has been used bright colors to make the characters look happier, so they can get a higher score. you can use the colors to see if people trying to get a high social media score.

for example, if you look on Susan and Lacie’s brother which goes in black and grey clothes, it means that they do not care how their first impression and how many scores they have.
