Six years later, Mark is one of the youngest billionaires ever, but his unprecedented success leads to both personal and legal complications when he ends up on the receiving end of two lawsuits, one involving his former friend.
This film feels like a relentless intellectual sparring match, propelled by razor-sharp dialogue and a coolly ambitious energy. It's a cynical, isolating examination of genius, betrayal, and the complex, often cold, birth of a modern phenomenon. Expect a propulsive, thought-provoking experience.
