Freedom Downtime

About This Movie

Freedom Downtime is a raw look into the hacker subculture, centering around the Free Kevin movement.

The pacing is uneven, reflecting the chaotic nature of the topics discussed and the lives of those involved. The film dives deep into themes of digital freedom and the ethics of hacking, showcasing real-life implications. It's not just about the events; it’s about the people—how they think, their motivations, and the consequences they face. The practical effects? Well, there aren’t many, but the realness of the interviews adds a gritty authenticity that makes everything feel immediate and urgent. There’s a certain rawness that sticks with you, you know?
