Synopsis – What to Expect from “Citizenfour”
Citizenfour is a 2014 documentary film directed by Laura Poitras. It follows the story of Edward Snowden, a former National Security Agency (NSA) employee who leaked classified information to the press about the NSA’s extensive surveillance activities.
The film starts off with a series of video messages sent by Snowden to Poitras, in which he reveals his identity and reveals his motivation for leaking the information. He explains that he wants to expose the government’s unconstitutional surveillance of US citizens and the world at large.
The film then follows Snowden as he meets with Poitras and journalist Glenn Greenwald in Hong Kong, and they discuss the documents he has provided. It also follows Poitras and Greenwald as they travel to various countries to meet with other journalists and discuss the documents.
The film also includes interviews with government officials and other experts who discuss the implications of the documents and the legality of the NSA’s activities. The film culminates with the US government’s response to the revelations and the global debate that followed.
Citizenfour is an important and timely documentary that sheds light on the power of the US government and the importance of privacy and freedom of information. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the implications of government surveillance and the power of the press.
