The connection is virtual. The danger is real.
Directed by Timur Bekmambetov
A tense, paranoia-soaked cyber-thriller about an undercover journalist navigating the psychological manipulation of online radicalization, told almost entirely through screens.
Looking to investigate recruitment techniques of ISIS to lure women into Syria, a journalist creates a Facebook profile of a Muslim convert. When an ISIS recruiter contacts her online character, she experiences the process first hand.
