Undeterred by armed soldiers, smooth-talking politicians, and riot police, journalist Amy Goodman has reported some of the most consequential stories of our time. From the frontlines of global conflicts to the organized chaos of her daily news show Democracy Now!, she broadcasts stories and voices routinely silenced by commercial media. Oscar-nominated filmmakers Deal and Lessin (Trouble the Water, The Janes) take us behind the scenes with the warm, wisecracking granddaughter of an Orthodox rabbi—raised in a tradition of asking hard questions—as she navigates a news landscape reshaped by technology, corporate consolidation, and political assaults on truth itself. Urgent, provocative and unexpectedly funny, this is both a call to action and a celebration of resistance, posing the question: what happens to democracy when the press surrenders to power?
