Description

TCFF9 filmmakers tell harrowing stories about their fight to get their films made and seen in the age of Edward Snowden, Julian Assange and Bradley Manning. Whether they’re fighting PBS, the US Consulate or some of the richest men in the country, the long tendrils of government and corporate money reach into every secret—and not so secret—place. Find out how our intrepid filmmakers are overcoming deeply entrenched obstacles to distribute their films.

Scheduled to Appear: Ira Deutchman, moderator; Carl Deal and Tia Lessin, “Citizen Koch;” Cullen Hoback, “Terms and Conditions May Apply;” Slavko Martinov, “Propaganda;” Robert Greenwald, “War on Whistleblowers.”
