And if planned murder could be prevented? Every day, computers and cameras capture data to analyze them, in order to fight and prevent crime. We are constantly observed and monitored by new technologies: how much freedom are we prepared to give up in return for the promise of total security? PRE-CRIME travels to Chicago, London, Paris, Berlin, Munich and other places to show predictive policing techniques in action, to investigate their opportunities and dangers and to meet people who use them and those who have been victims of them. The film has been selected at Hot Docs Festival in Toronto and at DOK.Fest in München in 2017.
