# CINEMA /// The 3rd Letter by Grzegorz Jonkajtys

Published

The 3rd Letter is a 15 minutes movie created by Polish director Grzegorz Jonkajtys in 2010. The plot is pretty classic in the science-fiction field but still very efficient in the representation of a capitalist system using biopolitical means to control its sustainability in time. Using an aesthetics sharing between Blade Runner (Ridley Scott) and eXistenZ (David Cronenberg), The 3rd Letter introduces the super power of a bureaucratic healthcare (the recent debate on the socially cruel American healthcare was maybe in Jonkajtys’ mind) which own the power of people’s life and death via a lucrative recharging of universal pacemakers’ batteries.
