A small group of Wikileaks journalists make their way through Central Asia interviewing newspaper editors. Their real goal: to find local media outlets to publish secret US diplomatic cables. This intelligent, guerrilla-style doc follows their fascinating journey from Afghanistan to Manhattan, through the boundaries of free speech and the minds of those who shape our understanding of the world.

A very, very interesting documentary. What stood out to me the most and kinda scared me was the broad reaches the American government has in the determination of news in foreign countries. Highly recommended. Anyone interested in wikileaks, journalism, and the spread of information and news should definitely watch this.
