The story
Inside the bubble of Silicon Valley, a data-mining CEO strives to turn insight and influence into profit and power in this darkly comedic look at the warped dreams, outsized egos, and ethical lapses of the self-styled inventors of the future.
What it’s like
Sharp, cynical and tightly wound, with the pleasure of watching self-regard curdle into scheming. Its menace is corporate and ethical rather than physical, so the tension comes from boardroom talk, half-truths and ambitions outrunning scruple, with little bodily harm or gore. The tone sits between dark comedy and thriller, with the comedy coming from the gap between how important these people believe they are and how petty their behaviour turns out to be. The pacing suits a binge session with a drink in hand, when the escalating compromises are easy to keep following. It will appeal most to viewers who enjoy satire of tech culture and morally compromised leaders, and who want a comedy that stays uneasy rather than cosy.
