Eräänä syksyisenä iltana vuonna 2003 Harvardin opiskelija ja ohjelmoijanero Mark Zuckerberg istuu tietokoneensa ääreen ja ryhtyy työstämään uutta ideaa. Kuumeisen bloggaamis- ja koodaussession seurauksena hänen asuntolakämpässään saa alkunsa maailmanlaajuinen sosiaalinen verkko ja viestinnän vallankumous. Ja vain kuusi vuotta ja 500 miljoonaa kaveria myöhemmin Mark Zuckerberg on kautta aikain nuorin miljardööri... mutta nuoren yrittäjän ällistyttävä menestys on samalla omiaan poikimaan vaikeuksia niin henkilökohtaisessa elämässä kuin lainopillisella sarallakin. Ohjaaja David Fincher ja käsikirjoittaja Aaron Sorkin tuovat valkokankaalle elokuvan The Social Network, joka todistaa, että jos hankkii 500 miljoonaa kaveria, saa väkisinkin muutaman vihollisen. Elokuvan ovat tuottaneet Scott Rudin, Dana Brunetti, Michael De Luca ja Ceán Chaffin, ja se perustuu Ben Mezrichin kirjaan "The Accidental Billionaires".
