The Rise and Fall of the American Dream

From the Oscar®-nominated creators of The War Room, this riveting documentary goes behind the scenes of the Internet Gold Rush to expose the human drama, cutthroat realities and painfully intimate inner workings of one would-be cyber empire from dot-com lift to dot-bomb flameout.

Kaleil Isaza Tuzman and Tom Herman were childhood friends, whose bright idea turned them into overnight Internet millionaires. Soon, investors were lining up to throw money at them. They hired hundreds of employees, built a nationally recognized name, rubbed shoulders with the President of the United States. What could go wrong? Everything. As the Internet-mania meltdown begins, they see it all slipping away - the high life. Captured in stunningly personal detail, it's a story of ambition, greed, loyalty, and passion that has critics everywhere agreeing that Startup.com is as riveting as it is timely.
