Steal This Story, Please!
In 1991, Amy Goodman’s life changed forever while reporting on the East Timor independence movement. After witnessing the killing of protestors and being brutally beaten herself, she recognised the power of journalism to create change. Since cofounding Democracy Now! in 1996, that mission has defined Goodman’s fearless reporting – consistently challenging those in power. Unforgettable archival moments include an unexpected call from President Bill Clinton, as she meets him with uncompromising questions. Oscar-nominated directors Carl Deal and Tia Lessin (Trouble the Water) craft a vivid, deeply human portrait, charged with urgency, wit and conviction in an era when truth itself is under siege.
