Two black women face racism and horror at an elite New England school. Master is a heavy-handed take on discrimination in academia as a reflection of American society. The film uses genre tropes and racial identity politics to push a sledgehammer narrative. The ostensibly smart protagonists become hapless victims of institutionalized bias. They are tokens preserving the status quo instead of inspiring change. Master lays its intolerance message on thick.
