Death of a President


This film creates a thin line between fiction and non-fiction. It is the story of a fictitious assasination of president George W. Bush. It follws the political and judicial story of this "event", and links it to fears that many have today. It tells us that manipluation of terrorism for politics will continue, indepenedent of Bush and current political elite. It tells us that conspiracy has no end and manipulation comes in all varieties. I like the idea of creating a fictitious documentary, which kind of feels like "Fahrenheit 9/11" and "The Corporation", and other more-obvious documentaries. This film predicts a possible political future and makes us(the audience) skeptical of a future conspiracy like this one. I didn't exactly like this film, but it was thought-provoking at least.
