The Great Hack

In the wake of the 2016 US presidential election, a data company named Cambridge Analytica came under fire for their role in harvesting and misusing personal data. The company had collected data on millions of Facebook users without their consent and used it to create targeted political ads for the Trump campaign. The scandal raised questions about data privacy and the impact of social media on democracy. This documentary delves into the dark world of data exploitation and follows the personal journeys of players on different sides of the scandal. Through their stories, it uncovers the unpredictable and often disturbing ways in which data is used to influence our lives and shape our world.
