This film tells the story of several men, women and children, who are lost in the modern world that is made easy by the internet, but also succumb to the perils of the internet.
I must say I can really relate to this plot, because it's so relevant to our lives. I just have to cast my memories to a few years back, before internet and smartphones dominate people's lives. There was no texting and posting selfies on Facebook! Nowadays, people adjust and maladjust to this new lifestyle. And the film is about that. Though the pacing is slow, it beautifully portrays the disruption and dangers of our behaviours we would otherwise not do without the internet. It exposes our need for attachment, recognition and love. I find the plot very engaging and touching.
