(Claire
Foy)
M-Net (Channel 101) will screen the movie The Girl in the Spider’s Web tonight (November
24 at 21h10)
Nowhere is safe in this action drama. A
computer hacker and a journalist find themselves caught in a web of spies,
cybercriminals and corrupt government officials.
Fired from the National Security Agency,
Frans Balder recruits hacker Lisbeth Salander to steal FireWall, a computer
programme that can access codes for nuclear weapons worldwide. The download
soon draws attention from an NSA agent who traces the activity to Stockholm.
Further problems arise when Russian thugs take Lisbeth's laptop and kidnap a
math whiz who can make FireWall work. Now, Lisbeth and an unlikely ally must
race against time to save the boy and recover the codes to avert disaster.
Directed by Fede Álvarez in 2018, the movie
stars Claire Foy as Lisbeth Salander.
