ARTICLE 12 presents a sharp look at the current state of privacy and the rights and desires of individuals and governments, and the increasing use of surveillance.
The film adopts the twelfth article of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights to chart privacy issues worldwide, arguing that without this right no other human right can truly be exercised. It brings together the world's leading academics, cultural figures and technologists to highlight the devastating potency of surveillance, the dangers of complicity, and presents a growing movement fighting for the upkeep of this crucial right.
ARTICLE 12 provides a powerful wake-up call as we sleepwalk into a worldwide surveillance society.

ARTICLE 12 untersucht, wo Privatsphäre und die Rechte und Bedürfnisse von Individuen und Regierungen angesichts der zunehmenden Überwachung heute stehen. Der Film nimmt den Artikel 12 der Allgemeinen Erklärung der Menschenrechte zum Ausgangspunkt - mit dem Fazit, dass dieses Recht grundlegend für alle anderen Rechte ist. Akademiker, Vertreter von Kultur und Technik äussern sich über die Auswirkungen der Überwachung und die Gefahren der Komplizität. Porträtiert wird auch die wachsende Bewegung, die sich für dieses Grundrecht engagiert. ARTICLE 12 möchte uns alle wachrütteln, die wir schlafwandelnd in eine weltweite Überwachungsgesellschaft hineinschlittern.

ARTICLE 12 esamina i risvolti odierni del concetto di privacy, mettendo in luce i diritti e i desideri degli individui e dei governi in una realtà sempre più sorvegliata. Prendendo spunto dall'Articolo 12 della Dichiarazione universale dei diritti umani, il film affronta la questione puntualizzando che se il diritto alla sfera privata non viene rispettato, nessun altro diritto umano potrà dirsi esercitato fino in fondo. Con l'apporto di studiosi di fama mondiale, il film mostra il devastante potere della sorveglianza e presenta il movimento che lotta in difesa di questo diritto fondamentale. ARTICLE 12 lancia un grido d'allarme per svegliarci dal nostro sonnambulismo.
