This study focuses on the digital surveillance process that threatens the freedoms and privacy of individuals and deeply affects social structures with the acceleration of the development of artificial intelligence and algorithms in the last two decades. The aim of this study is to evaluate the construction of discourse in the film Anon on the axis of transparency, surveillance, control and crime, hyper-reality, anonymity, privacy and power relations. The film Anon has a strong narrative that evaluates individuals' struggle for freedom and loss of privacy in the context of digital surveillance society. Discourse analysis method was used for the analysis of the study. The findings obtained from the film conclude that the surveillance mechanisms of the digital age completely destroy the privacy and freedom of individuals, turning them into obedient bodies, making resistance almost impossible, and that technology transforms individuals into data and commodifies them. In this context, the film Anon reveals the threats of the digital age on privacy and freedom, and emphasises the necessity of individuals to protect their privacy and defend their freedom by raising awareness about the ethical use of technology.
