    • Synopsis
    • 13-year-old Benjamin is a highly skilled hacker, but also a teenager who is highly distrustful of others following the loss of his mother seven years earlier. Benjamin, who has never known his father, lives in a children’s home.

      One day he receives a visit from two men from the Danish Defence Intelligence Service, who inform him that a woman they believe to be Benjamin’s mother was spotted by an airport surveillance camera several days earlier. At first, Benjamin is shocked by the news. However, he soon makes up his mind to investigate the matter and get to the bottom of what really happened to her.

      Forced to endure the company of Savannah, the new girl at the children’s home, the two teenagers soon realise that Benjamin’s mother is far from the person Benjamin believed her to be. In his efforts to find her, Benjamin hacks the Danish Defence Intelligence Service servers and discovers that his mother once developed a classified invention, which the Danish Defence Intelligence Service wants to get its hands on.

      It turns out that Benjamin has a far more important role to play in the efforts to find his mother than he realises. Nothing is what it seems…
