Eutanas, S.A.

The scouts

A euthanasia startup offering bespoke deaths styled after pop icons and movie scenes is exactly the kind of premise that makes consensus critics squirm—which means Nores nailed it. The absurdist escalation here doesn't wink; it commits fully to the bit, which is the only way this grotesque premise becomes genuinely thought-provoking rather than cheap.

Nores positions this in a lineage of satirical sci-fi that includes Brazil and Robocop—films that weaponize bureaucratic mundanity—though the execution here feels more sketch than sustained formal argument, lacking the architectural rigor those predecessors demand.

The decision to treat Eutanas, S.A. as a corporate pitch rather than a tragedy transforms the entire moral weight: every cheerful sales interaction becomes the horror, and that tonal inversion—achieved mostly through casting and deadpan delivery—does the heavy lifting on a clearly modest budget.
