Description
A top-notch conspiracy thriller about an extremely present-day topic: the power of technology and the Internet.
Michael Bellicher is a successful consultant. During a night spent at work, he witnesses something he should never have seen. Trying to escape a powerful operation in which he accidentally gets trapped, he is followed by the mysterious Mr. Miller. In a world of espionage-like computer techniques, full of managers, mergers, and opaque negotiations, Mr. Miller seems to know almost everything about Michael.
