Gives us insight into a truly inspirational woman. A career reporter who continues to lean into the hard stories when a lot of media is pulling away. May this film help us all to hold media accountable, for its importance in shaping the world should not be taken for granted.

independent journalism is critical to challenging the misinformation and bias in corp. media reporting. That’s where people like Amy Goodman and her independent news program Democracy Now! come into play. For decades, Goodman has worked tirelessly to report unfiltered, hard-hitting stories holding the powerful to account. Relentless, brave, ambitious, Goodman uses her platform to sidestep corporate media interference and discuss topics that polarize people around the world. No subject is off limits in her pursuit of truth.

Academy Award nominees Carl Deal and Tia Lessin bring forth an intimate behind-the-scenes look at someone who upholds the highest media standards and has made a career of trying to amplify accuracy and accountability.
