It’s really hard to make a movie on the internet. Not one that uses the internet to, say, raise money or distribute a film. No, what’s difficult is making a movie where more of the action takes place on the internet instead of IRL. Take, for example The Fifth Estate. The story of the secret-sharing site WikiLeaks and Julian Assange, as adapted from the book by former WikiLeaks spokesperson Daniel Domscheit-Berg, The Fifth Estate is a world where the fiction is stranger than the truth — even though it doesn’t have to be.
