One Night Only: A Dystopian Rom-Com That Raises More Questions Than It Answers

The Ringer’s review of One Night Only notes that a world where single people can only have sex on one annual night raises big questions about governance and surveillance. While the film hits funny, satirical notes and strong rom-com performances, it largely avoids explaining how the dystopian system operates or its broader social impact, leaving viewers amused but unsure what the premise ultimately means.
