SYNOPSIS
A hard-working lawyer, attached to his
cell phone, can't find the time to communicate with his family. A
couple is drawn into a dangerous situation when their secrets are
exposed online. A widowed ex-cop struggles to raise a mischievous son
who cyber-bullies a classmate. An ambitious journalist sees a
career-making story in a teen that performs on an adult-only site.
They are strangers, neighbors and colleagues and their stories
collide in this riveting dramatic thriller about ordinary people
struggling to connect in today's wired world.
DISCONNECT explores the
consequences of modern technology and how it affects and defines our
daily relationships. Shot with eavesdropped naturalism, it marks the
first fiction feature from Henry-Alex Rubin, director of the
Oscar-nominated MURDERBALL.
