This is pure propaganda, and it's sickening. Indie filmmakers work their entire lives to get a film in distribution, and this POS fake documentary, gets shown in regular distribution. SOmeone in the movie industry needs to explain how the fuck this happened.

And yes.. I was at the theatre this weekend, and I know people who work at the theatres, and NO ONE was watching those films. No one. Ghost towns.
