Conocido por la realización de éxitos como "El sexto sentido", "Señales" o "El protegido", el guionista, productor y director de cine de origen indio, M. Night Shyamalan, es el creador de un mundo etéreo de suspense, sólo comparable al suyo propio. "El secreto de M. Night Shyamalan" es un thriller al estilo de la película "El Proyecto de la bruja de Blair", que muestra a un personaje rodeado de secretos. El documental se inicia cuando el director, Nathaniel Khan, trata de entrevistarlo durante el rodaje de "El bosque". El equipo se traslada al lugar y, mientras espera, recoge con sus cámaras los misterios que lo rodean. En el documental tratan de hacer creer al espectador que Shyamalan posee poderes, curiosamente, los mismos que algunos de sus personajes; aderezado con entrevistas supuestamente no autorizadas a actores de la talla de Johnny Depp, o la supuesta foto fantasma en la que Shyamalan sale algo borroso.

With Australia at war in Vietnam in 1967, suddenly Prime Minister Harold Holt disappeared without a trace—an event unparalleled in the history of western democracy. Four decades later, a coronial inquiry confirmed that Harold Holt had accidentally drowned. Some people may still believe that Holt was a spy and fled to China in a submarine. But most suspect there was more to his disappearance than has ever been revealed. Reconstructed from eyewitness accounts, this dramatised documentary tells the story of the Prime Minister's secret world in the months before he disappeared — a world of betrayal, blackmail, political treachery, a poisonous feud, mounting physical and mental strain, and near-death experiences. Featuring Normie Rowe as Harold Holt, Nicholas Hope as William McMahon and Tony Llewellyn-Jones as John McEwen, this film reveals explosive new aspects of the case.
