How far will you go to protect your life, Casey is facing every teenagers worst nightmare, as an anonymous hacker plans to leak her private photos to the public through the Internet, she races against time in order to end the stalkers plan and save her identity. Written by Miss W J Mcdermott
A low budget film but very well executed. I am not of the virtual generation but whether or not this film is accurate ( and the degree of hacking seems unlikely ) it is a well illustrated fable of our modern age dealing with an issue that is becoming more prevalent. It is very difficult for all of us to understand that what we do online is a real and that we should be prepared to take responsibility for what we do. Our online activities maybe pursued in the virtual world but the consequences of those actions will be played out in real time, by real people with real results. Perhaps it is time to stop calling it "cyberspace" or " virtual reality" as it seems to be the place that many people spend a lot of time in. The film has the feel of a stage play, written by some-one who wants to bring an issue to life. And I think they have succeeded, well done to all involved.
