In the 1995 film The Net, Angela Bennett receives a computer security program that puts her in danger.

Angela is a software analyst who works remotely and specializes in debugging security systems. A colleague sends her a disk containing a program with access to sensitive computer networks. After she examines it, criminals target her and manipulate official records so that her identity and legal existence appear to belong to someone else.

The film explores anxieties about computerized identity, remote work and dependence on interconnected databases. Angela’s professional knowledge helps her investigate the conspiracy, but the same digital systems that make her work possible are used against her.

The Net was released in 1995 and stars Sandra Bullock as Angela Bennett. Irwin Winkler directed the film. It is distinct from the later television series The Net, which premiered in 1998 and also centers on a computer analyst whose identity is threatened.
