Alex Winter's "Deep Web" is a compelling exploration of the hidden layers of the internet, shedding light on a world that challenges traditional governmental and banking control. This award-winning documentary focuses on the notorious Silk Road online marketplace and the controversial trial of its creator, Ross Ulbricht. Winter, who directed, wrote, and produced the film alongside Marc Schiller and Academy Award-winner Glen Zipper, meticulously examines the rise of decentralized, anonymous networks that have sparked both innovation and legal challenges. Through "Deep Web," Winter provokes a critical conversation about the intersection of technology, privacy, and freedom in an era where the lines between law and internet autonomy are increasingly blurred.

A seasoned filmmaker, Winter brings his distinct vision and narrative expertise to "Deep Web," following a long history of impactful documentaries like "The Panama Papers" and "Trust Machine." His ability to distill complex, global issues into accessible, engaging stories sets him apart in the world of documentary filmmaking. As an actor, director, and writer with credits from Broadway to the "Bill & Ted" franchise, Winter’s diverse experience fuels his ability to tell such nuanced stories, with "Deep Web" standing as a pivotal work in his ongoing investigation of the digital age’s impact on society.
