Computer hackers are now hunted fugitives and disappear daily without trace. The film's narrative follows Anthony (23) who has interrupted his studies at university to look after his younger sister Sam (16) after the disappearance of their parents. Anthony and Sam's parents were part of a group of politically motivated hackers called 'The Movement' that has been targeted by the Internet Protection Agency. Key players in the The Movement have been arrested in an attempt to stop leaked files from the IPA archives, documenting evidence of its brutal restrictive practices, being made accessible to the general public.
