The Broadcast Incident

INHALT

James is a video archivist who stumbles upon archaic TV broadcasts of a masked figure seemingly trying to communicate something in a broadcast hack. James embarks on an obsessive pursuit to discover the truth, drawing him into a dark web of conspiracies.
For three years, James (Harry Shum Jr.) has been haunted by his wife's sudden and inexplicable disappearance. His best distraction is work – specifically, archiving old videos. While watching decade-aged TV news footage one night, he sees a video interference that's deeply disturbing. And it's not the only interference he'll see. As his obsession over these strange clips increases, and he submerges himself into their mysteries, James discovers troubling connections to his missing wife. Which will these broadcast intrusions bring him, though: long-desired answers or a never-ending nightmare? The film was inspired by actual broadcast interruptions that occurred in Chicago in the late 1980s, and remain unsolved to this day.
