Jane Fonda said:
“Steal This Story, Please! is a powerful film about the brave and brilliant Amy Goodman, a truth teller who will enter your heart and inspire you. As each day brings escalating attacks on free speech and media, this exhilarating film reminds us that silence is complicity. Everyone must see it.”
STEAL THIS STORY, PLEASE will be released in the US on April 10th. Together Films are representing the film for International Sales excluding North America – if you are interested in learning more about this film, please get in touch with us.
