Benjamin is a nobody, an outsider, but this changes when he meets the charismatic Max. The two of them couldn't be more different, but they share one mutual interest: hacking. Together with Max's friends, they form the subversive hacker group CLAY (CLOWNS LAUGHING @ YOU). For the first time in his life Benjamin feels like he belongs and even the beautiful Marie starts to notice him. But what started out as fun soon turns deadly serious, when Benjamin and CLAY are suddenly investigated by German Secret Service and Europol. With the leading Europol cybercrime investigator at their heels, Benjamin starts to realize that he is no longer a nobody, but one of the most wanted hackers of the world.
