Dystopian
A futuristic, imagined world in which cruel societal control maintained through technological, moral, corporate, or totalitarian control. They make an illusion of a perfect society where people think that everything surround them is going perfect, even after they are prevented from such freedom that they should have in their life. It is happening because most people in that society have blind devotion to those unfair rules. But in the dystopian fictional story there is always someone who realizes that the society he is living, is not perfect. Most of the time that person is a protagonist of the story. In the story, they face so much problem because either they are not a good

fit in the society or they don’t like the way the society is being controlled.

So, that person always tries to either break the rules or try escape from the society and find his or her own freedom. Therefore, the protagonist of dystopian story’s always against the society because the dystopian society is always controlled very strictly and most people in the society accept the law of the society without any question
The book “White Mountain” is a dystopian society’s story because majority of the story contains the characteristic of dystopian society. In the “White Mountain” the society is controlled by gigantic three lags walking Machine which is known as “Tripod”. Humanity has been enslaved by this machine. In the book human are being controlled from age of 13 by implants known as “caps”. By doing capping the machine suppress curiosity and creativity

from the human brain. In this case, the society is being controlled technologically. People in that society unquestionably accept the Tripod’s power. But the main character of the story don’t support the idea of being capped by tripod. His name is Will Parker . He said"'Why should the Tripods take people away and Cap them? What right have they?”(Christopher40). It doesn’t make sense to him why should people be capped by tripod. So he was questioning himself and others because he doesn’t want to be capped by the tripod. So, luckily he met a man by the time when he was almost reaching the age of thirteen. This was the time for him to be capped by the tripod. The man he met, give him the information about that there is a place where he can go and can be escaped from being capped. Also there won’t be any Tripod in that place. So in this case, the protagonist of the story Will Parker believes that something is terribly wrong with his society and he feel trapped. So he wanted to escape. Therefore, this story is dystopian because the protagonist is facing the same problem as a dystopian protagonist would face and the society is being controlled same way as a dystopian society would.
The movie “Gattaca” is a dystopian society’s story because the movie has same characteristic as dystopian society. This movie is about futuristic world where the natural reproduction system is no longer valid to produce human. All babies are born with genetically engineered. A person’s future and carrier depends on his/her genes that were given when he/she was born. They use that genes to determine one’s potential. A person who has great genetic profile is hired for high standard job while others have been choose to do menial work only. Even if the person with “inferior” gene has same ability like other people in the society, they never get the chance to prove themselves. In this case, the society is extremely discriminated and the government has full control over the society. So it is kind of hard for people who naturally born, to survive well in that society. The main character of the movie, Vincent, was the last person to born naturally. He wanted to become an astronaut, but it wasn’t possible with his “inferior” gene. So, at last however Vincent managed to use another person’s identity to fulfil his dream. But he has to struggle so much not to get caught with his fake identity. Therefore, the movie “Gattaca” is a dystopian story because the government control the society. Also, no one but the protagonist of the story, Vincent, facing problems because of this particular law in this society.
In conclusion, the dystopian society is always under some kind of control where the law is very strict and citizen live in a dehumanized state. The protagonist of the story always feels trapped because usually they struggle through this particular law and they just want to escape. In the “white Mountain” the Tripod control the whole society by capping. But the protagonist Will Parker didn’t want to be capped by tripod. So, he decided to run away. In the movie, the whole society was extremely discriminated toward the people who was naturally born. The society was strictly controlled by government. Because of that, the protagonist of the story had to struggle a lot. Overall if dystopian world is worse than natural world because.
