“Filmmaker en scenarioschrijver Marc Silver onderzoekt al jaren de machtssystemen achter sociale media. Hij stuitte op een artikel over Molly en maakte de documentaire die deze week draait op het Movies that Matter Festival in Den Haag. “Ik zie Molly’s verhaal als de uitkomst van een systeem dat expres zo is ontworpen.”
“Co-written by Harvard professor and best-selling author Shoshana Zuboff, the film follows the trail of two narratives and their devastating convergence. Molly’s friends, family and associated professionals trace in detail what happened to Molly, while the economic logic behind Big Tech helped fuel an algorithmic spiral resulting in tragic consequences.
From a teenager’s suburban bedroom to the boardrooms of Silicon Valley, Molly Vs THE MACHINES is the story of a heartbroken father’s quest to uncover the truth behind his daughter’s death, and his fightback against how the most powerful corporations of the modern age operate.
Now, as Big Tech’s global domination escalates with AI, Molly’s story reminds us that the real power is still in our hands.”
