The Assessment

At 3studio, we had the privilege of working on The Assessment, a gripping 2024 science fiction thriller directed by Fleur Fortuné in her feature-length debut. Starring Elizabeth Olsen, Alicia Vikander, and Himesh Patel, this thought-provoking film takes viewers into a near-future world devastated by climate change, where the suitability for parenthood is determined through a rigorous and unsettling process.

Our involvement in the production included recording ADR (Automated Dialogue Replacement), helping ensure that the performances of this incredible cast translated flawlessly to the screen. Working on the nuanced and emotionally charged dialogue of The Assessment was an exciting challenge, given the intense psychological depth and tension woven into the story.

The film follows Mia (Elizabeth Olsen) and Aaryan (Himesh Patel), a couple who must endure a seven-day assessment overseen by Virginia (Alicia Vikander), an assessor whose increasingly erratic and unsettling behaviour pushes the couple to their limits. Through its unique premise and haunting execution, the film raises profound questions about society, humanity, and the ethical boundaries of control.

Premiering at the Toronto International Film Festival, The Assessment has already garnered critical acclaim, with an impressive 86% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes. With Amazon Prime Video acquiring international rights outside Germany, the film is set to reach a global audience, and we’re proud to have played a small part in its creation.

Collaborating with the talented cast and creative teams on this project has been a rewarding experience for 3studio, and we can’t wait for audiences to experience the unsettling and thought-provoking journey that The Assessment offers.

Be sure to watch The Assessment on Amazon Prime Video and immerse yourself in this chilling vision of the future.
