We Steal Secrets: The Story of Wikileaks
by Alex Gibney
USA, 2013, 130’, o.v. Ita. sub.
Shot with startling immediacy while the events were in full swing, the film is a gripping multi-level account about transparency in the age of information and of our ever-elusive search for truth. By narrating the creation of the controversial website by the enigmatic Julian Assange, the film follows his rise and fall occurred in parallel with that of Bradley Manning, the brilliant, young soldier who downloaded hundreds of thousands of documents from military servers and American diplomats.
With the participation of Claudio Giua (President FST – Fondazione Sistema Toscana), Stefania Maurizi (journalist, author of “Dossier Wikileaks – Segreti Italiani”), Kristinn Hrafnsson (spokesperson of Wikileaks)
