About the Filmmaker

This is Not a Conspiracy Theory is about the role of conspiracy theories in American culture, but its ultimate purpose is to introduce people to the realm of systems science, which is where we can better understand the hidden forces that shape our lives. This is Not a Conspiracy Theory is produced in a conspiracy-like style, but it was slowly and carefully produced over eight years. It’s an “anti-conspiracy” film. You can watch the trailer and excerpts here.
