One of the top movies on Netflix this month is Unknown Number (spoilers ahead), a disturbing true-crime documentary about a 2020 cyberbullying case in the small town of Beal City, Michigan.
The story revolves around two 13-year-olds — Lauryn and her boyfriend, Owen — who begin receiving anonymous text messages from an unknown number.
But Unknown Number isn’t just about strangeness of sin; it’s also about how smartphones tend to play to our worst instincts — and in a particularly powerful way.
It’s worth observing that Unknown Number is practically a negative picture of all four norms.
Unknown Number is a disquieting reminder that — both spiritually and socially — the digital age is in desperate need of some big changes.
