Three years of filmmaking chronicling a fantastic moment in global online history. It is dubbed the ‘largest copyright case’ ever and this is the truth about what happened.

MegaUpload, tech entrepreneur owner of the popular cloud service, Kim Dotcom arrived in New Zealand with his family in late 2010. Wanting a ‘quiet life’ he rented the largest mansion he could find, threw parties, raves, concerts and gifted $500,00 fireworks to a city in Auckland. Then it all fell. One day in January 2012, 70 heavily armed and helmeted New Zealand police stormed Dotcom’s home. They arrested him along with three “coders” on a long list of serious charges relating to allege copyright infringement by MegaUpload. Out on bail, he continues to plow forward.
