The story revolves around a former cameraman from the 80s, now turned movie pirate. There’s a rawness to the atmosphere, like you can feel the tension in those darkened theaters. The pacing is kind of relentless, pulling you along as he smuggles his camcorder, but then it takes this sharp turn when he records something that spirals out of control.
