I've seen this take before but the video essayist was very blunt about Vincent being a Jew allegory impersonating his way up through a racist goyim (WASP) system and his donor friend (forget his name) immolating himself as the only way a goy can repent of his sins of being not a Jew. It was brutal lol.
I still like Gattaca, although I find the alleged allegory to be troubling and difficult to refute.
edit: just read the IVF thread. What a nightmare lol. Good thing IVF is so ridiculously difficult
