At the time of the untimely suicide of twenty-six-year-old internet savant Aaron Swartz, I was blindsided by the loss, and on that day I compiled everything I could find in a blog entry.

This one-sided documentary, told entirely by supporters, paints Swartz as a hero pursued by malign forces.

It's a movie about a genius and a prodigy using what he's been gifted with to make a difference in his world. With some great archival footage and some insightful interviews, director Brian Knappenberger has crafted a thoroughly engaging and informative documentary. When you watch as many documentaries as I do it can get tiresome to see the same old, same old tactics used in telling stories, but The Internet's Own Boy overcomes this by simply being so fascinating. The story of Aaron Swartz's life is so interesting that it's pretty easy for this film to capture your attention and imagination. Maybe it overestimates his impact on the world, but the film is an interesting insight into social change in the digital age.

"The internet's own boy was brought down by the old world." A thought provoking and poignant documentary about the conflict between law, the establishment and new technology as told through the work, prosecution and suicide of a young internet pioneer.

Knappenberger has delivered a film brimming with outrage, whose zeal becomes persuasive once Swartz takes on his activist mantle.
