COVER UP is a new documentary that traces the explosive career of Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter Seymour Hersh, who exposed some of the most consequential cover-ups and abuses of power in modern history—from the My Lai massacre in Vietnam to torture at Abu Ghraib in Iraq.  It is both a portrait of a relentless journalist and an indictment of institutional violence and the cycles of impunity in the U.S. military and intelligence agencies. The film offers a deeper understanding of the forces that shape the world beyond headlines, borders, and state-approved versions of history, and shows the importance of bearing witness to injustice wherever it occurs. It has a 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes and it drops on streaming this week. Watch the Trailer.
