Original language (Original-Sprache): English

Two teens keep getting nonstop, vulgar, taunting texts on their phones. Not a one-off prank. More like a campaign. The big question is obvious: who’s doing it, and why? „Unknown Number: The High School Catfish“ is a documentary that leans into the worst part of harassment. It’s constant, it’s personal, and it makes you doubt your own reality. The investigation stretches over months, with police trying to piece together patterns while the harassment keeps rolling in. What starts out feeling like a familiar, local bully situation slowly loses its footing. Then the case reveals something that flips the initial assumptions on their head. It’s uncomfortable in the way the truth usually is. Also, yes. Your phone should probably not be the villain’s lair.
----------
Zwei Teenager bekommen ständig vulgäre, spöttische Nachrichten. Nicht ein bisschen. Richtig systematisch. Und natürlich weiß am Anfang niemand, wer dahintersteckt. Die Dokumentation „Unbekannte Nummer: Der Highschool-Catfish“ baut das Ganze wie einen digitalen Albtraum auf, bei dem das Handy der Endgegner ist. Was zuerst wie klassische Mobbing-Nummer oder Täter aus dem Umfeld wirkt, kippt nach und nach. Die Polizei ermittelt über Monate, während die beiden zwischen Angst, Wut und dem Gefühl, verrückt zu werden, hin- und hergerissen sind. Und dann kommt diese eine Enthüllung, die alle ersten Vermutungen kurz auf den Boden legt. Trocken. Unangenehm. Und leider sehr plausibel.

00:00Close it?
00:00Yeah.
00:02The people in my high school I've grown up with since kindergarten, basically.
00:07I first met Owen in seventh grade.
00:10They were just like a high school couple in a movie.
00:13We were like best friends.
00:14But the more friends you have, the easier it is to be betrayed by them.
00:22Something dangerous could happen.
00:24A high school girl in Michigan was cyber-bullied for more than a year.
00:27And who turned out to be the suspect shocked everyone.
00:33It was so bad to the point where I didn't want to even go to school anymore.
00:36It was relentless.
00:37I mean, one in the morning, three in the morning.
00:39I would question how I thought about myself.
00:42There are some sick messages.
00:43They were enough to make a 53-year-old man blush.
00:47It's crazy how having a phone can become the worst thing that happened to me.
00:52Things are about to get so much worse.
00:57Sorry, not sorry.
00:59Each and every day I'd feel like I'd lose trust in everyone.
01:02You had to be careful of every single word that you said or else you could look guilty.
01:06Really just all started to look like me.
01:09She could be sending them to herself.
01:12Everything was great and then, you know, things started happening.
01:16The parents wanted to confront people and start pointing fingers.
01:19When they involve the FBI, you can just see how fast this escalates.
01:24They made quite a scene in school.
01:26I wanted to try to protect her and keep her safe.
01:30I found one phone number that kept coming up.
01:32We gotta nail this son of a...
01:34I really don't know what to say.
01:35This is disgusting.
01:37No way.
01:40Crazy that someone that close could do something like that.
01:43I didn't want to say these films like that.
01:50You brought one of the movie like that.
01:50I'm like, oh.
