Plot

It's a sordid tale of a true American patriot, who, after discovering high-levels of espionage, corruption and bribery of high-level U.S. officials by Turkish nationals, was turned into a pariah by the Bush Administration instead of being congratulated.

Sinekatalog’s take

A patriot who exposed foreign bribery at high levels finds himself punished instead of thanked. The documentary builds an angry case about whistleblowers and political retaliation. Engrossing for viewers who like investigative nonfiction.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
