Gods of Their Own Religion

In a technocratic world enforcing obedience under the guise of safety, outsiders risk everything to connect — hunted by a state that erases dissent. Set in dystopian near-future Britain, a defiant band of rebels refuses to conform, forming forbidden connections while evading a system built to monitor, predict and silence opposition.

The Bitcoin angle

A dystopian anti-authoritarian film exploring themes of surveillance, control, and human autonomy that resonate with cypherpunk values and Bitcoin's ethos of decentralization and resistance to state overreach. Shot as an act of defiance without budget, script, or official permission.
