So, 'Dear Hacker' is this intriguing little documentary that really digs into the paranoia of our digital age. The filmmaker, who remains unknown, crafts a rather intimate exploration of his own fears—like, what if someone’s peeking through my webcam? It’s a mix of personal narrative and broader commentary on surveillance. The pacing has this almost claustrophobic tension, as he hops from video call to video call, each one peeling back another layer of mystery. The atmosphere is thick with anxiety, perfectly capturing that feeling of being watched. What’s cool is how he uses practical effects and minimal tech to amplify the creepiness without losing that personal touch. It’s definitely distinctive in its approach, and you can feel the weight of the themes throughout.
