A new documentary provides a never-before-seen perspective on one of the most controversial moments in recent scientific history. During the COVID-19 pandemic, a group of prominent scientists has challenged the government’s prevailing approach to lockdowns. Rather than being welcomed into the scientific debate, they claimed they were sidelined and censored.
The documentary features dissident scientists such as current NIH director Dr. Jay Bhattacharyya, former White House coronavirus adviser Dr. Scott Atlas, and former CDC director Dr. Robert Redfield, as well as interviews with journalist David Zweig and WSJ Opinion Editor-in-Chief James Tarrant, who both question the mainstream narrative surrounding the government’s response to the coronavirus.

“Many Americans would like to forget the coronavirus as just a distant memory, but we need to learn from what went wrong and ensure it never happens again, especially to ensure that Americans do not sacrifice their inalienable rights due to government pressure,” said Michael Pack, president of Palladium Pictures. “In the wake of the hantavirus outbreak, this documentary is more relevant than ever.”
Michael Pack produced and directed the film, which is the latest installment in the WSJ Opinion Documentary series of documentary films co-produced by Wall Street Journal Opinion and independent production company Palladium Pictures.
