The Antisocial Network
The filmmakers behind the cult hit “Feels Good Man” elaborate on their Emmy and Sundance-winning film “The Antisocial Network.” Telling the story of one of the most impactful websites in history, 4Chan.org, the film chronicles the experience of some of the first “channers” who helped create this thriving community for self-styled shut-ins. What started as a niche site, bringing together lovers of anime, memes and… a lot of porn, ended up turning into a powerful machine for distorting reality and fomenting chaos in the real world. Now adults, these “channers” reflect on what they built, questioning whether the genie can be put back in the bottle.
