In the Web

Directed by Annie Goldson1h 48m1968

The larger-than-life story of Kim Dotcom, the 'most wanted man online', is extraordinary enough, but the battle between Dotcom and the US Government and entertainment industry—being fought in New Zealand—is one that goes to the heart of ownership, privacy and piracy in the digital age.

Our read: In the Web (1968) reads as a sombre, kinetic, grounded thriller · latvian · soviet entry — measured in intensity, mid-stakes in scope, cold in temperature, ambivalent in outlook.
