Due to the control of Alpha60 in Alphaville, those who oppose and challenge authority are brutally executed in an unemotional ceremonial event. The citizens of Alphaville are taught not to question their existence, which deprives them of feeling joy and sadness. Violence, prostitution, and inhumanity characterize the life of Alphaville. The females are objectified and used for pleasure, such as the woman with the mark denoting her rank. The vision of Alphaville is the voice of technology as an absolute becomes the idol for the comatose citizens of Alphaville. The mad world of Alphaville, like film noir cinema, is a comment on the morality of current society. | |||
