Max Headroom Hijacks Chicago

The film which you are about to see is an account of the tragedy which befell a Chicago Television network, in particular WTTW and it's broadcast program, Doctor Who. It is all the more tragic in that the episode had just started. But, had it been a very, very long episode, the viewers could not have expected nor would they have wished to see as much of the mad and macabre as they were to see that day. For them an idyllic staple of nerd programming became a nightmare. The events of that day were to lead to the discovery of one of the most bizarre crimes in the annals of American history, The Max Headroom Pirating Incedent.
