The Pirate Bay

Early 00s Stockholm. Peter, Fredrik and Gottfrid unite in the dream of a free internet. Gottfrid is working on developing a service that connects file sharers from all corners of the world. The anti-piracy agency's chief legal officer, Henrik Pontén, realizes early on what consequences The Pirate Bay will have, but finds it difficult to make his voice heard.

The powerful lobby group, the Motion Picture Association of America, is threatening to sue The Pirate Bay. An impulsive action by Gottfrid ignites the conflict and the Americans hire Sweden's foremost copyright lawyer, Monique Wadsted. Henrik Pontén tries to find reliable sources within the shady Swedish pirate scene in search of sensitive information.

The plans to start selling ads on The Pirate Bay further divides the group. Behind Peter's back, Gottfrid and Fredrik make a decision that will cost them dearly. Attorney Monique Wadsted is working to identify the men behind the site. The anti-piracy agency's Henrik Pontén calls a press conference to present the findings he obtained through his source. But nothing goes as he intended and his fight against the pirate movement has consequences for both him and his family.
