A high school teacher, a department store manager, a convenience store clerk, a lawyer, and two sociopath youths appear in five interconnected stories, all shot entirely from the point of view of hundreds of security cameras that people pass and ignore every day. 9·11事件之后，美国出台相关政策，严重侵犯了人们的隐私权。政府在全国安置了3000万个摄像头，每天监视人们的一举一动，无论在加油站、更衣室、还是洗手间里，都不能逃脱摄像机的法眼。本片就是以此为灵感，像模像样的导了一出监视剧，通过几个主角的演绎，来展现人们的言行不一。
