123 minutes 2013 6.2

They started as an underground website and became the world's most sought after people. But when WikiLeaks founders Julian Assange and Daniel Domscheit-Berg came into possession of the largest amount of confidential intelligence ever leaked from the US Department of Defense, an internal battle began. For what is the price of the greatest secrets of the free world? And what will it cost to reveal them?

It is Daniel Domscheit-Berg's own book about WikiLeaks that forms the basis of this authentic thriller about the most controversial address on the web. And about the equally controversial mastermind, Julian Assange.
