When documentary filmmaker Cullen Hoback sets out to uncover the forces behind QAnon, his attention turns to 8chan, the site where "Q" posts.

Q: Into the Storm charts a labyrinthine journey to uncover the inner workings of Qanon, a massive online conspiracy movement led by the anonymous figure "Q." In order to discover Q's true identity, the filmmaker embeds in a dark underworld populated by trolls, political operatives, and QAnon's most prominent figures. Attention turns to the reclusive team behind 8chan, the site on which Q posts cryptic messages, where a rivalry brews between Jim and Ron Watkins - the secretive father/son duo who own and operate 8chan - and its young founder, Fred Brennan. After a series of mass shootings are linked to his website, Fred goes on a warpath to end 8chan, and Q, at any cost.
