In the great tradition of stunt documentaries, David Bond exposes the depth of Britain’s surveillance state by vanishing. He’s challenged a pair of stylish private investigators to find him within 30 days, using only the information available on databases, online, etc. This trailer makes the whole affair seem intriguing–like a real-life Bourne Identity. But if Bond is in a bunker deeper underneath Piccadilly or wherever, how is he capable of “directing” the pursuit?
