User Reviews

Excellent lesson in reality

This movie provides plenty of examples that the events occurring in the US right now are not some new, unprecedented thing. The Russians have executed the same tactics in multiple places around the world...dividing the populace, preying upon nationalistic fears, and a steady feed of propaganda. It's a fascinating documentary and a must watch to get an idea of what we are currently facing.
