Exploring the deepest, darkest facets of online life through the eyes of Victor - a content reviewer for the largest social media networks, and prospective paraphilic serial killer. Faced with watching the most explicit, deranged and inhumane aspects of the world around him, Victor slowly ingratiates himself into a dark-web subculture promoting and creating sexually 'perverse' content, utilising modern technologies such as AI and hidden cameras to satisfy their members. It's the age old question - is evil driven by nature or nurture?
