Is Black Mirror Feminist? Breaking It Down by Each Episode

With characters like Star Wars's Captain Phasma and Marvel's Hela, it's been a year for female baddies. This intense Black Mirror episode is no exception, elevated by Andrea Riseborough's leading performance.

It revolves around Mia, a woman who is involved in an accidental murder with her friend Rob. Fifteen years later, she meets with Rob, who's overwrought with guilt. Not wanting to destroy the life she's built for herself, she goes on a killing spree to cover up her tracks. It's refreshing to see a female villain at the center of the episode, especially since women are often cast aside as victims or mere love interests in the thriller genre.
