Bob Geldof grew up listening to the radio on the outskirts of Dublin, where his loneliness and resentment of prescribed drudgery manifested itself in an all-consuming desire to escape. It was an almost quintessential rock-star story — rebellion, transgression, fame, drugs, escapades, fading glory. That is, until he turned on the news one late-October evening in 1984 and saw a short story about a famine that moved him and changed his life. The next year, Mr. Geldof was in the Sahel region of Africa, overseeing distribution of the $140 million he and his fellow musicians ultimately helped to raise in one of the largest charity efforts ever organized.

El director ganador de un Oscar por Rumores de guerra, Errol Morris ofrece en The Unknown Known un retrato fascinante sobre Donald Rumsfeld, uno de los principales arquitectos de la Guerra de Iraq, un personaje grandioso cuyo carácter provocó los mismos niveles de furia y adulación por parte del pueblo estadounidense. En vez de llevar a cabo una entrevista convencional, Morris conseguirá que Rumsfeld vague entre sus recuerdos para sacar a la luz aquellos que nunca han sido publicados sobre su vida como congresista y asesor de cuatro residentes distintos, dos veces como Secretario de Defensa. Estas memorias nos abrirán una ventana a la Historia, no tal como ocurrió sino como Rumsfeld quiere hacernos creer que ocurrió. Morris intentará demostrar, dilucidar y racionalizar que las memorias del ex congresista se contradicen con la verdad. (SENSACINE)
