Features: DVD, Widescreen, Spanish, Subtitled
Confess charts the exploits of disillusioned ex-hacker Terell Lessor (Eugene Byrd). Employing strategically placed spy-cams, he captures compromising footage of those who slighted him in the past, broadcasting edits via the Internet. Recognizing the power of this model, and working in tandem with accomplice Olivia (Ali Larter), he targets CEOs, politicians, and members of the power elite. Soon Terell's every action is front-page news, law enforcement has labeled him a new breed of terrorist, and the movement he spawned is spiraling out of control.
Editor's Note
Tapping into the modern obsession with surveillance, CONFESS revolves around a talented computer hacker who uses hidden cameras to get back at his enemies.

Writer-director Stefan Schaefer's high-concept script, "Confess," which snagged the Hamptons' scribe prize, never quite transcends its own cleverness. A black, downwardly mobile computer genius abducts corporate and governmental VIPs and taunts them into "confessing" the racism, exploitation and naked self-interest behind their smooth official facades...As the disillusioned overachiever and legendary hacker Terrell (Eugene Byrd) takes revenge on all those who have done him wrong, the DV-shot pic cleverly capitalizes on its digital technology, "rewinding" to flashbacks and incorporating computer editing into its narrative. When Terrell hooks up with a blond Ph.D. candidate (Ali Larter), who sees a wider revolutionary potential in his Web site, the cyberspace movement escalates into violence and spirals out of control. Successive endings allow the hero to have his cake, eat it and self-righteously denounce it, too. - Ronnie Scheib
