Don't look. Don't ask. Don't click. Marty (15) dies and his father looks at the remnants of his digital life. Why did he take part in horrific events? Why did he die? His whole life was ahead of him; now he's dead. All that is left are chilling videos shot shortly before his death. The grieving father puts together snippets of Marty's online life to reveal the circumstances of his tragic end. He embarks on a search that gradually unveils a complex picture of the last months of his son's life.
