Cinema/documentaries: The Virtual Revolution: Enemy of the state

Dr.Aleks Krotoski continues her investigation into how the world-wide-web is transforming our lives. In this second film in the series, she charts how, for better and for worse, the web is reshaping our relationship to authority and forging a new brand of politics.

Featuring stories from the digital front line in China, Iran and Eastern Europe and interviews with some of the web's biggest names – including its inventor Tim Berners-Lee (from Britain), Martha Lane Fox, Al Gore and the founders of Twitter and PayPal – this film presents the definitive guide to how the web is redrawing the political landscape and unleashing a battle of ideas across the world.
