About the Film:
Dissecting one of the most influential platforms of the contemporary social media landscape, this Sundance favorite explores the impact of an app that eclipsed Silicon Valley to become a cultural phenomenon reshaping the world. A cast of Gen Z influencers, helmed by influencer Feroza Aziz, is central to the film, making this one of the most needed and empathetic films exploring what it means to be a digital native. TikTok, Boom explores the space where technology meets, amplifies, and opposes our humanity.
As TikTok takes the throne of the world’s most downloaded app of all time, touted by some as “The Sunny Corner of the Internet,” but by others as a threat to democracy itself, TikTok, Boom is a clear-eyed exploration of how a social media app best known for teenagers dancing became in the crosshairs of geopolitical controversy between two of the world's tech superpowers. This rigorous exploration balances a genuine interest in the TikTok community and its innovative mechanics with a healthy skepticism around the security issues, global political challenges, and racial biases behind the platform. The story of TikTok, Boom is a story about the future of society, the power of artificial intelligence, and how a 60 second video from your bedroom might just have the power to change the world. TikTok, Boom premiered at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival and was an official selection at SXSW, HotDocs, SF Film, CPH:DOX and Docaviv, among others.
