from Producer and Director Shannon Kieth:

Documentary about Purported Terrorists Premieres December 16th in Oakland, CA.

They are called the #1 domestic terror threat by the FBI, even though they claim to have never harmed a living being.

Recent FBI documents revealed that the filmmakers have been under physical and electronic surveillance for years.

The director, an attorney, also discovered that the FBI, in violation of the law, had recorded her privileged conversations with clients.

'As an officer of the court, I couldn't believe that one of our most protected rights was violated. The relationship between an attorney and their client is sacred,' said director Shannon Keith.

The film will expose viewers to shocking footage and breathtaking accounts that are reminiscent of the McCarthy age.

Co-producer Ramy Hassan said, "The more I learned about how our government represses political dissent, the more passionate I became about this film. Everybody needs to see it. It will change lives."
