One of the most spellbinding films I have ever watched, We Steal Secrets: The Story of Wikileaks, documents with dumbfounding clarity how one person’s decision can ripple throughout time and borders and go on to affect the globe as a whole.
And while the decisions that the main subject of Weiner makes may not be as far reaching or impactful as those found in We Steal Secrets, it is yet one more example that we do not need made up stories in cinema to scratch our heads and go “That was unbelievable”, while also making us glad it does.
