PAULA, Patrícia Lins de. Arkangel: the Black Mirror's most Freudian episode. Estud. psicanal. [online]. 2019, n.52, pp. 189-192. ISSN 0100-3437.

Black Mirror, an anthological and science fiction series, became popular on the Internet for its clever and unprecedented approach to how the misuse of technology can ruin human relationships and aggravate the individual's malaise. Pleasant and uncomfortable, the current episode, Arkangel, addresses the dilemma of postmodernity with the narcissistic and manipulative peculiarities of human nature within parental relationships. In this article we discuss the typical case of an overprotective mother who disguises the desire for power under a thin shell of concern and care for her only daughter, and the implosive unfoldment that this can result, in the light of Alfred Adler, Donald Winnicott, Michel Foucault and Sigmund Freud.
