Format : 8 x 45min

Set inside the bubble of Silicon Valley, The Audacity takes on the warped dreams, outsized egos, and ethical lapses of the self-styled inventors of the future. In a world of jaded billionaires, psychiatrist-gurus, bio-hacked tech bros, AI labs and disillusioned teens being optimized in elite private schools, an audacious data-mining CEO (Billy Magnussen) strives to turn insight and influence into profit and power. A darkly comedic drama that confronts reality, privacy, and the delusions fueling our ever-changing world.

Our take

Jonathan Glatzer (Succession, Better Call Saul) takes on Silicon Valley, the epicenter of modern-day neuroses. Anchored by an all-star cast (Billy Magnussen, Sarah Goldberg, Zach Galifianakis and Simon Helberg) and the incisive direction of Lucy Forbes (This Is Going to Hurt, The End of the F***ing World), this ferocious satire dismantles the self-made man myth and the toxic pursuit of success. A caustic deep dive into the tech world that explores how the quest for power ultimately devours our humanity.
