Cover-Up is a political thriller that traces the explosive career of Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter Seymour Hersh. Urgent and deeply reported, Cover-Up is both a portrait of a relentless journalist and an indictment of institutional violence — revealing a cycle of impunity in the U.S. military and intelligence agencies. Drawing on exclusive access to Hersh’s notes, and interweaving primary documents and archival footage, Cover-Up captures the power and process of investigative journalism.

 

Cover-Up opens at Film Forum on December 19 | On Netflix December 26

Previous appearances: Sneak preview screening + Q&A with director Laura Poitras and journalist Seymour Hersh, moderated by filmmaker Mira Nair on November 23
