**Groundbreaking**. If I were to describe Privacy Breach in one word, it would be "groundbreaking". The use of unorthodox camera techniques and video editing really sets a new standard for the film industry. Being able to see the world through the perspective of the security cameras (a plot-device used by the antagonist of the film) really gave meaning and depth to the universe of Privacy Breach. When I watched this film, I felt like I was really there, monitoring the actions of Kit Porter; like I was the antagonist. That's really what this film tries to get across, you are the antagonist. You are silently watching as these people are getting their lives destroyed, yet you refuse to intervene, you refuse to help, you refuse to do something, anything at all. Kit Porter on the other hand? He decided that enough was enough. He wanted to make a lasting impact on this world, fighting back against the tyrannical forces that be. He decided to stand up for the people around him, and really that's a message everybody can take away from this film. All of this, and I haven't even discussed the phenomenal editing. When Kit & the crew are "hacking" into the security cameras, you can see in _REAL-TIME_ the video footage degrading; the "glitches" in the footage. That's not something you're gonna get anywhere else. This film is a masterpiece and I applaud the sacrifices made by the crew that worked on the film. One day this film will resurface again through another viral clip, and that's when people will truly understand that this is what **real cinema** looks, sounds, and feels like.

Finally. A title to dethrone _1984_ as the supreme dystopian fiction. _Privacy Breach_ stands as a testament to the fragility of free will, and the almighty powers of government surveillance. One might argue that these are echoes of the warnings foretold by the likes of George Orwell. However, Orwell fails where _Privacy Breach_ shines. _Privacy Breach_ **isn't boring**. Cinematography, editing, sound design, and performances all come together to create a cinematic experience unlike any other. Gelled together by the masterful direction from Josh N. Hard to believe that this was their directorial debut. High angle, wide angle camera shots give the viewer a CCTV camera's point-of-view. Meanwhile, steady shots from behind the subjects immerse the viewer in a voyeuristic position. Truly giving the impression that our protagonists are being watched. Reminiscent of Andrei Tarkovsky's _Stalker_, but far surpassing anything it achieved. And for all of this to be under 4 minutes? Incredible.
