| Description |
The true FBI story of Reality Winner: yoga teacher, cat lover, national security threat. June 2017: Arriving home, Reality finds a team of armed federal agents waiting. They’re investigating a leak. Classified information has got out about Russian hacking to influence the U.S. presidential election. Reality lets the agents in. They chat. They reposition. Gradually, it becomes clear: this is an interrogation. The genuine FBI recording of Reality’s interview so struck Tina Satter that she adapted it, word-for-word, as a ready-made script. |
