Facebook demands that its citizens are open and connected, yet Facebook as a company is far from open and transparent. With 1.4 billion users, Facebook is the world's largest social media space and the company stores personal data on an unprecedented scale. Facebook is perhaps the most visible symptom of an increasingly closed and centralised Internet, but also a social revolution with great democratic potential. This documentary examines how Facebook as a business challenges two of democracy's basic principles: the right to free speech and the right to privacy.
