The bleak, mountainous terrain and quiet, lonely roads set the tone for this compelling venture into the heart of 'the Stans'. The first stop is Asia Plus, a newspaper in Tajikistan. "If we were to talk too freely about our taboos, what kind of taboo would that be?" asks the Editor-in-Chief, Marat Mamadshoev, with a smile. "We'd rather get approval from our superior first..." he says nervously. "The Washington DC overlord of Asia Plus!" Given the go-ahead, the team pours over the material. Speaking over Skype, Assange warns, "Read all of it. If you go searching for particular things you will bring your own prejudice to the material." But as the Wikileaks team move on to their next meeting, soon the call comes, "the problem is that there are many things in the cables that we cannot publish...because we will get into trouble". At the offices of the Kazakh Telegraph Agency the team receive a more frosty reception. "Why have you come here? If an unskilled man gets access to this data it will lead to anarchy!" Editor-in-Chief of the magazine 'Expert Kazakhstan' says with a shrug, "You are wasting your life in vain. Nothing will come out of it." After an arduous trek, back in their UK base the team take stock. "These boundaries of free speech, they look different in different countries, but they always exist in one way or another." In London and Washington the Editors-in-Chief of The Guardian and the New York Times speak frankly about the issues of "protecting individuals" and "self-censorship" and making tough decisions about whether or not to publish leaked government data. Sitting in front of a wall of framed pictures of US Presidents and politicians, Bill Keller discusses how, "a lot of presidents and foreign ministers...troop through here...to air their views". A potent road map of the fragile connections between the press, the public and the silent powers that control them.

美国无耻到了极点!
我甚至覺得維基解密就是一種新媒體。無論是電影前半段的中亞媒體自由度試探,還是電影後半段在美國語境下的媒體探討,都展現著新舊媒體的一種衝突。我尤其前半段這種公路紀錄,感覺真的是“維基解密炮彈飛車·中亞篇”。
theTruth
Here is the truth.
Tell the world the truth
"Information is a weapon. You can use a shovel to dig. But you can also use it to behead.""People are not ready to consume all information, so they should not be offered the full choice of it?Who is the judge?""WikiLeaks is a superficial shell.""Are you inspired?"
“Nothing has changed since the days of Aristotle and nothing ever will,from this point of view WikiLeaks is an ephemera, a one-day-event”……“WikiLeaks is a superficial shell.”
Perfectly done, warmly shot, utterly sad.
