Female Gaze

Hacking Hate

(Hacking Hate)

Swedish investigative journalist My Vingren repeatedly delves into the recesses of the internet to uncover virtual crimes that could expand into the real world. She and the film Hacking Hate expose links between mainstream media and right-wing extremism.

We follow Vingren as she uses fake profiles to infiltrate closed online communities run by the mysterious Vincent. The tense investigation into the true identity of the perpetrators and the roots of radical ideas and actions reveals a whole machinery that exists in the online space to incite racial and religious intolerance. The multi-billion-dollar companies that run popular social networking sites also bear a sizable share of the blame for efforts to destabilise democracy.
