Volunteer of the Month pick, selected by one of September’s Volunteers of the Month – The Amazing Aaron!
Celebrating the 30th Anniversary of Hackers, director Iain Softley’s neon-soaked cyber-thriller that lives on as a 90’s cult classic. Jonny Lee Miller stars as Dade “Zero Cool” Murphy, a teenage hacker banned from computers after crashing Wall Street at age eleven. Now a high school senior, he falls in with a ragtag crew of cyber-rebels led by the brilliant and fearless Kate “Acid Burn” Libby (Angelina Jolie). When the group accidentally uncovers a massive corporate conspiracy, they must outwit the FBI, take on a ruthless security officer (Fisher Stevens), and prove their innocence before they’re taken down by the system.
A cult classic bursting with wild style, pulsing electronica, and gloriously outdated tech lingo, Hackers remains a fast-paced celebration of youthful rebellion, and the anarchic spirit of the early internet age.
