Director
Patricia Franquesa
Pati's world turns upside down when her stolen computer becomes the target of a blackmail threat. An invisible Hacker sets up a cat-and-mouse hunt, pushing Pati to the limit as she seeks help from legal authorities, only to realise she is the only one who can find the way out. Through her search, Pati discovers that her story is just one of the countless cases uncovering the vulnerability we all face in protecting our privacy in the online world.

We delve deeper into how to combat online sexual violence, particularly against children, as part of our awareness campaign launched in 2024. This topic will also be addressed at the human rights event Workshop: How to Recognise and Counter Online Sexual Abuse of Children, taking place on June 8 within the RIGHTS NOW! program at Zhovten Cinema.
