Experiencing Interruptions?

ATOMAN

Hakim Imlil, an ethical hacker, is wanted internationally for having hacked the computer servers of an American pharmaceutical laboratory. His main goal was to give patients suffering from a virus the benefit of a low-cost generic drug.

Arrested by Interpol, he is handed over to the Moroccan authorities. Hakim Imlil has no choice but to accept the job offer from DGSN. They want him to be a white hat for their cybercrime unit that is investigating a series of cyber-hackings involving Chinoui, the head of the Casablanca mob.

Hakim and Sanaa question Lockham, the CEO of one of the banks that was hacked by Chinoui. They have no idea that the friendly banker is actually a large-scale white-collar criminal. In fact, Lockham is a psychopath. He stole a very special astrolabe from an archaeological excavation in the lost city of Atlantis, and now wants to use the device's power to rule the world.

The truth about Lockham coincides with Hakim's discovery that the coveted astrolabe has awakened his own superpowers. Hakim realizes that he has inherited superpowers from his Arab and Amazigh origins. He now finds himself drawn into a fight against the evil Lockham. In order to win the fight and save the world, Hakim needs to master his powers and become ATOMAN. (ATO means Wind in Amazigh)
