In SWATTED video gamers describe their struggles with "swatting", a life-threatening cyber-harassment phenomenon, in which people are targeted through falsified emergency calls that trigger SWAT team interventions (SWAT = Special Weapons And Tactics) at their homes, preferably while they are live streaming their games. Using interviews, found footage, and manipulated in-game images, the film constructs a view of a world, in which the monitor used to interact with virtual worlds becomes a permeable portal and the game manifests as a real threat inside the teenagers’ bedrooms.
