Based on a true story, PUBLIC takes us back to the dawn of the internet era, chronicling two college kid’s journey from total obscurity to the nexus of Wall Street where their company opened up on the stock exchange with the highest rising IPO in history, making them Wall Street legends at 24. This is the story of two young pioneers who became icons of the internet revolution– and one of the first whipping boys when the market began its spectacular collapse. PUBLIC takes us to the front lines and behind the scenes of the Internet craze, recording all the ludicrous hype, from the wild valuations and record-breaking IPOs to the market’s nightmarish downturn. It is a coming of age story for the Internet generation about a couple of teenagers-turned-businessmen. It is part adventure story, part romance, and part documentary of an era that business will never experience again
