TV-MASynopsis
Watch The Billion Dollar Code (2021), Season 1 online on iFILM — a four-episode German drama that cuts between two clocks: early-nineties Berlin and a courtroom decades later.
A hacker and an artist build software that lets you fly across the whole planet on a screen, long before anyone calls it normal. Deutsche Telekom backs the idea and hands them a single hard year to deliver. From the Kyoto conference to a trip through Silicon Valley to the hunt for investors, the partnership climbs and then starts to crack. The other timeline follows the same two men, older now, suing one of the Valley's giants over what they say was stolen from them. The episodes assemble the case piece by piece — a walked-out deposition, a flight to Budapest, the final testimony in a Delaware court.
It's drawn from a real patent fight against Google. Four quiet evenings about inventors and the price of being first. Stream The Billion Dollar Code Season 1 online on iFILM.
