How to Watch
In 2010, the FBI raided the home of 25-year-old Matt DeHart for child pornography. What at first seems like an open-and-shut case, spirals into claims of a government cover-up involving Wikileaks and Anonymous. Sonia Kennebeck’s new documentary is a bizarre spy story with twists, turns, double-crosses and paranoia.
After their son was imprisoned on these charges, Paul and Leann DeHart work to clear their son’s name, eventually freeing him on bond and seeking asylum in Canada. A judge agrees that the pornography charges are potentially false, and that the FBI was instead seeking Matt’s computer for his alleged hacking and feeding of information to Wikileaks and Anonymous. But even this thread becomes complicated when it’s revealed that Paul and Leeann were once intelligence operators. And why was Matt seen at the Russian embassy? “A shocking documentary that's amazing at every turn.” --Robert Daniels, RogerEbert.com
