The Conversation

For Harry Caul, a surveillance expert, wiretapping has become his everyday job. The routine of disturbing other people’s privacy becomes a nightmare when he discovers something alarming while recording a young couple in the park. At first, Harry is not sure whether his suspicion is not just a figment of his absurd paranoia, but soon he starts to worry that the recording may get misused and becomes more and more entangled in a net of crime and secrets.
