Top Priority: The Terror Within
Self - Former US Attorney General (archive footage)
Federal officer with the Department of Homeland Security discovers a national security breach related to the entry of 23 aliens from terrorist countries into the United States. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner, former head of the DEA Robert Bonner can't afford any more media scrutiny, since his incompetence was already exposed in the NASA 'Challenger' disaster. To avoid the scandal, the full might of the government is unleashed against Julia Davis, her family and witnesses. This retaliation reaches an unprecedented magnitude, including four unexplained deaths, Hollywood and the Mafia, false imprisonments and the use of Blackhawk helicopters and airplanes for warrantless surveillance. Amidst many shocking revelations, this documentary provides a new insight into the deaths of well-known Hollywood figures unwittingly dragged into this scandal. The truth is no longer a secret.

Фаренгейт 9/11
Self (archive footage)
Документальное исследование причастности Джорджа Буша к трагедии 11 сентября… Главные темы фильма — истоки терроризма и события 11 сентября 2001 года. В фильме Мур расследует тесные связи, существовавшие между двумя «кланами», двумя поколениями Бушей и двумя поколениями бен Ладенов. Автор картины утверждает, что между Джорджем Бушем-старшим и отцом Усамы бен Ладена существовали прочные деловые связи. Они сложились, когда Буш-старший еще находился на посту президента США, долгое время поддерживались и были разорваны лишь через два месяца после чудовищных терактов, осуществленных против США в 2001 году.

Self

Security Anthem
Musician
An exercise in post-September 11th dementia, in which banal lines delivered by talking heads become increasingly sinister.
Echolalia
Self
Echolalia is the meaningless repetition of words or phrases associated with forms of dementia and aphasia. In the build-up to the war in Iraq certain phrases were endlessly repeated to the point where these empty rhetorical phrases were confused with concrete facts. I tried to record as many instances of people repeating the phrase “weapons of mass destruction” as I could stand and represent these statements in a way that draws attention to the deadening effect of their repetition, however emphatically they are expressed.
