Synopsis
Monika Hielscher and Matthias Heider investigate the practice of pre-crime policing, a method used in the US and Europe. This technique relies on algorithms and forecasting software to label individuals as "hot people," predicting their likelihood of becoming victims or perpetrators of crime. The film questions the accuracy of the data used in these predictions and the potential risks to civil liberties. It presents a critical view of how technology shapes law enforcement strategies in contemporary society.
