A high-tech thriller built on surveillance anxiety and voyeurism, where a man's invasion of privacy spirals into a cat-and-mouse game of escalating danger and moral compromise.

Nick is excited to discover he's won a dinner date with his favorite actress, Jill Goddard. But when Jill refuses to honor the contest, he receives an offer he can't refuse: the ability to view Jill secretly via computer. Nick begins watching the unknowing star on her webcam, not realizing that this decision will put himself and Jill at risk as they enter a terrifying world of cat-and-mouse.
