Joybubbles
Screening of Joybubbles (2026), a documentary about a blind teenage phone phreak whose whistled tone helped shape hacking culture
2026 | USA | 79' | Documentary
One of the breakout audience favourites of Sundance, Joybubbles tells the fascinating story of a young blind boy in 1960s America, who discovers he can control the global telephone system by whistling a unique tone which unlocks free long-distance calls. Through his search for connection and conversation, his early obsession with the telephone sparks a subculture that shapes the future of hacking and technology. And that's just part of his remarkable story.
