Due to a hockey accident, computer nerd Sam is forced to stay home with a broken leg. Just when he is about to die of boredom, he hits upon a hacking software that enables him access to external webcams. The shy teenager becomes a hidden voyeur and finds out everything about the intimate secrets of his classmates: Aaron, for example, the mysterious new boy at school, apparently has serious issues with his father. When Sam observes Aaron hiding a knife in his room – and after the incident there is no trace of Aarons father – Sam becomes suspicious. Together with Livia, his classmate and secret crush, he tries to get to the bottom of the situation – but soon they end up in a precarious situation…
