Summary

One year ago, student Laura Barns (Sossaman) committed suicide after an embarrassing video of her passed out at a party was posted on the Internet, which was the source of much ridicule and humiliation. Six of her classmates were especially egregious in their treatment of her, and this group decides to have a Skype video chat one night. An unknown seventh person, using Laura's old Skype account, crashes the call and begins to threaten the group unless they log out.
