4 Minutes 12 Seconds

4 Minutes 12 Seconds by James Fritz
Di and David have done everything they can to give their son, Jack, the best start in life. But when an explicit video of Jack and his ex-girlfriend surfaces online, their carefully constructed world begins to unravel. As they scramble to protect him from the fallout, uncomfortable questions arise—about consent, accountability, and the power dynamics at play in the digital age.

Torn between their instinct to defend their son and the disturbing realities they can’t ignore, Di and David are forced to confront their own biases and the consequences of their parenting. Four Minutes Twelve Seconds is a gripping, morally complex drama that explores privilege, gender politics, and the devastating impact of social media in the modern world.
