    • Synopsis
    • Serious crimes demand appropriate sentences.
      So how can environmental crimes of corporations and governments go unpunished again and again?
      A group of activists around computer programmer Jake demands justice - once and for all.
      They kidnap four key figures from politics and economy and keep them hostage in a safe room.
      Through a live broadcast on their website, the activists confront their prestigious victims with their actions.
      But how far can you go in the name of justice before right becomes wrong?
      Should a greedy CEO, who denies the human right to clean water, have a taste of his own medicine?
      Pursued by police and a private military company, the loop around kidnappers and hostages is tightening.
