Synopsis
In a near-future Los Angeles, technology has evolved to allow direct human-computer neural interfaces called sockets, blurring the line between virtual reality and the physical world. When a devastating computer virus threatens to crash the global network and kill anyone jacked in, a ragtag group of hackers, video artists, and outcasts must fight to save both cyberspace and humanity.
