"We knew that they would try to sweep the whole thing under the rug." Briarcliff has released an official trailer for a documentary titled The Dissident, which originally premiered at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. The film is the next feature from filmmaker Bryan Fogel of the Oscar-winning doc Icarus a few years ago. When Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi disappears in Istanbul, his fiancée and dissidents around the world work to piece together the clues to a murder and expose a global cover up. This documentary is the story of Khashoggi and what happened to him. "Chillingly powerful and heartbreakingly candid, The Dissident is an intimate portrait of a man who sacrificed everything for freedom of speech. With this cogent film, Fogel joins a cadre of dreamers across the globe who refuse to squelch the life’s work of an intrepid rebel, who, even after death, is defying those who sought to silence him forever." These kind of doc films are incredible - so many truthful details & interviews presented in such a fascinating, eye-opening way. ›››
