Propaganda: The Art of Selling Lies

.. about propaganda? This film is more like a cautionary tale to everyone making documentaries. It is so overtold and at the same time has so much it wants to say that it crushes most of the points it's trying to make and almost everyone who participates in it. In 92 minutes this film manages to give bafflingly little insight into propaganda despite travelling all over the world and through the entire history of the human race. The film tries to talk about politics, society, art and the media, but it just doesn't have the brains to do it in a meaningful and coherent way. Only a few uninterrupted moments, like the one with the artist who made the iconic Che Guevara artwork, will keep you from losing your mind watching this strange attempt at documentary filmmaking.

This film has some very interesting people and stories in it... But it doesn't matter if you've got the best ingredients in the whole world if you are really s**t at cooking.
