An FBI whistleblower is struggles with the consequences of her actions in this documentary from French directors Mathieu Verboud and Jean-Robert Viallet.

Following the ensuing hearings and law suits, Edmonds founded the National Security Whistleblowers Coalition. This film chronicles Edmonds crusade for truth and free-speech.
