REALITY
Duration: 83 mins
Director: Tina Satter
Cast: Josh Hamilton, Sydney Sweeney, Marchánt Davis, Benny Elledge, John Way
Genre: Political
Saturday afternoon, June 2017. Twenty-five year old Reality Winner is confronted at her home by the FBI. A cryptic conversation begins and soon Reality’s life starts to unravel.
With all dialogue taken directly from the FBI’s transcript of the interrogation — alternately nail-biting and banal, darkly funny and surreal — REALITY tracks one woman’s experience of the U.S. government at work. As more details of Reality’s life are revealed and more armed men arrive, a complex portrait emerges of an American millennial, yoga teacher, and veteran under siege.
