Plot edit
The plot centres around a young woman named Emma (played By Bella Heesom) who has just split up with her fiance, Jamie (played by Alex Falk), after he cheated on her. Not sure how to cope with the pain and rejection and seeing Jamie with another girlfriend, Emma tricks Jamie into going into an abandoned warehouse filled with his possessions. Once inside, she locks him in indefinitely.
Using her expertise as a performance artist, Emma sets up a website and broadcasts Jamie's every move over a webcam to an audience of millions. The new phenomenon sweeps the nation's media; Emma becomes scared, and doesn't know how to end the revenge, which has got out of control. She asks her friend Avril (played by Deborah Bouchard) to help her get some money so they can leave the country. Just as they are about to let Jamie out, he tricks them and locks them back in the warehouse, broadcasting their movements over the internet.
