Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
Documentary filmmaker Shannon Keith attempts to discover why the Animal Liberation Front was labeled the number one domestic terror threat by the FBI by speaking with the very men and women who put their lives on the line to ensure the safety of our furry and defenseless friends. Just who are the clandestine individuals who together form this formidable group, and why do they think that the best way to help animals is by breaking the law? In addition to featuring never-before-seen footage of Animal Liberation Front members in action, Behind the Mask also allows members of all ages and backgrounds the opportunity to explain why they believe that they are doing the right thing for our planet despite being painted as terrorists by the powers that be.
