Abstract
THE CIRCLE is a new film directed by James Ponsoldt, and adapted from a 2013 book of the same name by Dave Eggers. The film stars Emma Watson as a new hire at a tech company, and Tom Hanks as its chief executive. The film is now in theaters. Science & Film commissioned Danielle Citron to write about issues of privacy and transparency. She did so with her 11th grade daughter, Eleanor Citron.
