WMD-The Inside Story

wmd. (also known as wmd-The Inside Story.) is a political thriller released in December 2008 focused on the falsification of evidence in the build-up to the Iraq War. The film is shot entirely from a CCTV/spy-camera perspective and follows the story of an ordinary MI6 desk officer who accidentally discovers that the American and British governments are doctoring the facts in order to convince us that invading Iraq is justifiable. Although the story of the MI6 desk officer is fictionalized, the film is based on hard evidence that has surfaced and continues to surface, since the invasion began.
