Nowadays, there are cameras everywhere. But are they just watching the passing scene? Or is someone after you? Johnny Ace is a street-smart surveillance expert - a "New Age Noir" detective who tells us like it is. With humor and anguish, he tracks a life-and-death story about privacy in our high-tech world.

Audience comments: "Crazy, creepy, but true." "Funny, then you realize that's the way we live." "Johnny Ace has us pegged."
