An intrepid reporter investigates a shadowy organization that is responsible for numerous assassinations and ends up going much deeper than she ever intended.


This short film follows Laura, an intrepid reporter who is trying to get the scoop on a shadowy organization called Intervention. Think of Intervention like Anonymous, but on steroids. While they do conduct hacking operations, they will, if they think someone is a particularly dangerous threat to society, conduct assassinations. Laura, in the course of her investigation, ends up going much deeper than she ever intended.

The Red Button is a new short film by John Hidalgo. He was the writer, producer and director of the short films The Princess in Yellow, La Cauchemar which was shown at the Stockholm H. P.
