Josy, Sylvie and Mireille tried their luck at countless cybercafés in Yaoundé and live happily with their "whites" in Wallonia, Flanders and the Pyrenees. Others, like Natalie, weren’t so lucky and had to go back home after a bad experience.

Ce documentaire nous ramène dans un premier temps dans les années 60 avec John Draper, le pionnier du piratage téléphonique. Il sera une source d’inspiration pour un certain Steve Wozniak, un jeune génie qui fondera plus tard le géant Apple. Puis, faisons un bond en avant dans les années 80, lorsque le piratage informatique devient un acte jugé criminel. Le hacker le plus recherché des Etats-Unis à l’époque, Kevin Mitnick, nous raconte son histoire et ses 5 années passée en prison. La rencontre de ces 3 figures du piratage nous permet de faire la lumière sur ces hommes qui devinrent à la fois les héros et les bandits de l’ère informatique.

Quand Steve Jobs est mort, le monde a pleuré. Mais comment expliquer le chagrin de millions de personnes qui ne le connaissaient pas ? Ce film évocateur retrace le parcours de Steve Jobs, d'une petite maison de banlieue aux temples zen du Japon, en passant par le bureau du PDG de l'entreprise la plus riche du monde, et explore comment la vie et l'œuvre de Steve Jobs ont façonné notre relation avec l'ordinateur. The Man in the Machine est une réévaluation provocante et parfois surprenante de l'héritage d'une icône.
