    Conspiracy, betrayal, and revenge in the global telecom industry!

    Someone is blowing up mobile-phone towers across England. Messages scrawled in blood-red paint at the scenes proclaim that mobile phones are the instruments of the devil. What’s more, a gunman - or gunmen - is shooting cell phone users in mid-conversation. Baffled police investigators scramble to avert public panic.

    In four interlocking parts, this tense drama peels back the layers of a terrorist conspiracy, gradually revealing the evil at its core. We follow three characters - a disgraced telecom executive (Michael Kitchen, Foyle’s War), a bitter ex-soldier (Jamie Draven, Billy Elliot), and a disgruntled engineer (Neil Fitzmaurice, Going Off Big Time) - all united by circumstance or collusion.

    In a style reminiscent of Crash, the narrative moves backward and forward in time, unraveling the three men's complex motives and their connections to a ruthless self-made millionaire (Keith Allen, Robin Hood). The result is an ultra-modern thriller packed with surprising twists and astonishing emotional depth.
All 4 episodes of the 2007 British thriller Mobile are coming to DVD in North America, courtesy of Acorn Media's release on October 7th. This 2-disc set is presented in widescreen, with English - Stereo sound and English subtitles. Running time is 206 minutes. Cost is $39.99 SRP in the USA and CA$46.99 SRP in Canada. Here's a look at the package art!
