SYNOPSIS:

Killswitch is a show about a cyberwar that’s raging all around us, and two women who fight their different battles in it. One is a cynical expat hacker who needs to save her kidnapped best friend. The other is an idealistic journalist who needs to prove her former lover and colleague didn’t commit suicide- he was murdered. Both are connected to a dangerous conspiracy that reaches into the depths of the government and the dark money that pulls the strings. When they realise that dubious Eastern European millionaires are financing hackers to chew their way to the West through cyberspace, their two battles become one. They need to stop the upcoming parliamentary elections, before the Eastern Trojan horse plunges them into a new-age totality.
