We Steal Secrets: Die WikiLeaks Geschichte (2013)
Julian Assange und die von ihm mitbegründete Nachrichten Plattform WikiLeaks entwickelte sich zur weltweiten Medien-Sensation, als auf dem Portal streng vertrauliche Daten des US-amerikanischen Militärs veröffentlicht und der allgemeinen Bevölkerung zugänglich gemacht wurden. Die geheimen Video- und Textdokumente, die WikiLeaks von dem damals 22 Jahre alten, amerikanischen Soldaten Bradley Manning zugespielt wurden, warfen ein internationales Schlaglicht der Empörung auf das Verhalten des US-Militärs während der Kriegseinsätze im nahen Osten und machten die bis dahin weitestgehend unbekannte Website zum globalen Politikum. In der Dokumentation „We Steal Secrets: The Story of WikiLeaks“ befasst sich Regisseur Alex Gibney mit der Entstehungsgeschichte von WikiLeaks und beleuchtet die mediale Kontroverse um ihren Mitbegründer Julian Assange.
