Overview
Boom. analyzes the algorithmic, sociopolitical, economic, and cultural implications and effects of the app that made history by dissecting TikTok, one of the most influential social media platforms of the current day. This exhaustive investigation combines a real interest in the TikTok community and its unique mechanics with a healthy degree of skepticism regarding the security risks, global political challenges, and racial biases that underlie the platform. A cast of Gen Z subjects, led by influencer Feroza Aziz, remains at the film's core, making it one of the most necessary and empathic films addressing what it means to be a digital native.
