The Truth About Power
THE DOCUMENTARY
- Why do some groups of people exert an outsized influence in global politics?
- Why are others perpetually marginalized?
- Why do the same patterns of control repeat throughout history?

In this fearless documentary, The Truth About Power, leading thinkers from around the world confront the fundamental questions others fear to address.
- How does power really operate behind the scenes; who are the puppet masters pulling the strings?
- What are the (overt and covert) mechanisms the ruling class uses to shape outcomes?
- How does a conspiracy of (enforced) silence protect those operating in the shadows?
- How, throughout history, have so few people managed to have so much influence; what are the secrets to this sustained dominance?

To answer these urgent questions, the documentary will interview notable academics,
historians, sociologists, religious figures and cultural commentators.
As well as hearing from former insiders who were once at the heart of media and finance empires - who saw firsthand how these faceless decision-makers manipulate systems of influence.
It’s a journey that stretches back to biblical times, throughout the centuries, right up to the world we live in today: exposing how our governments, corporations, financial institutions, media and multi-lateral institutions truly operate, and who sets the agenda behind closed doors.

We’ll examine the real reasons for the wars we’re fighting - and the ones we’re conspicuously avoiding.

It’s a story the global elites won't want to be made public - and will no doubt be suppressed, or
dismissed as a ‘crazy conspiracy theory’ by mainstream media.

But it’s time to lift the veil.
Because the truth - about power - must be told.
