Story

Gawping instead of helping: a mother’s crusade against digital brutalization. After her daughter Mia is killed in an accident at a busy crossroads, Jenni is confronted with videos of Mia’s death on the Internet. Instead of helping, passers-by instead filmed what was happening on their mobile phones and then posted the results on the Net. Appalled and furious at the qawpers’ lack of empathy and sensation-seeking, Jenny takes action. Supported by a hard-as-nails lawyer, she decides to take on the gawpers. A hopeless struggle begins. Based on real events, the film shows how easily so-called social media lead to antisocial behaviour.
