Liberty Bound
Liberty Bound takes an entertaining look at America’s
ongoing struggle to keep a comfortable balance between democracy,
capitalism, and fascism. This is a film about historic events
that shape history. It is a film about courage and fear; ignorance
and knowledge; propaganda and rhetoric.
Christine set out to answer these questions on her quest
across America:
What is fascism and why does that word increasingly appear
in the alternative and foreign media when referencing the
United States?
Are we losing our civil liberties?
Is our very constitution and Bill of Rights in jeopardy?
Do Americans know what their government is doing?
How much of the daily news is well-disguised propaganda?
Through original footage, archived footage, and interviews
with people such as Howard Zinn, Michael Parenti, and Michael
Ruppert, Liberty Bound explores the state of the union and
its ostensible move toward fascism. We talk with people who
have been interrogated by the Secret Service and threatened
with arrest for doing such benign things as sending an email,
turning around during a Bush speech, and having a philosophical
discussion on a train.
Christine also explores the unanswered questions surrounding
the attacks of 9/11, and she takes a closer look at the timeline
of that terrible day. She examines the US Government’s
reasons for going to war with Afghanistan and Iraq. She also
delves into the accusations that the Bush Administration knew
about the 9/11 attacks and their warlike agenda is actually
centered on oil.
Finally, she studies the elements of previous empires and
fascist states as compared to recent occurrences in the United
States: the loss of civil liberties, police brutality, homeland
security, etc.
Liberty Bound leaves us with the question: “Is the
United States bound for liberty – or does it just have
liberty bound?
