... Determination: Suffering Under the Burden of Perfection
The film Gattaca introduces the main theme of suffering under the burden of perfection. ... If child engineering could be done, then what would be stopping the world from separating into different sub-groups such as the Valids and In-Valids like shown in Gattaca. ... He defies the impossible by becoming Jerome and gaining an exemplary job at Gattaca, which reflects upon the idea of freedom versus determinism.
Through entering Gattaca and earning a flight into outer space, Vincent proves that he is no “biological machine” and certainly that his life is not predetermined by his genes. By default, being a God-child, Vincent was assumed to not have any chance to be accepted into Gattaca let alone take a voyage to Saturn. ... He defeated his perfect brother, which proved to him that his life was not determined by how he was born, and that if he wanted it bad enough, he could make it to Gattaca.
