Based on investigative reporting by Bloomberg News’ Olivia Carville, Can’t Look Away takes viewers inside the emotional and legal struggles of families seeking justice for their children harmed by social media platforms. 

The film delves into the tactics of major tech companies, the dangers of addictive algorithms, and the urgent need for industry reform to protect vulnerable users.

Through exclusive courtroom footage, interviews with whistleblowers and experts, and deeply personal stories from grieving families, Can’t Look Away is a searing indictment of the systems that prioritise profit over people.
