This Is Not a Movie
2019・Canada・Germany・109 minutes
Robert Fisk, the famous British Middle East correspondent, has been on the frontline for more than 40 years reporting on the most violent and divisive conflicts around the world. His relentless pursuit of facts and his courage to challenge those in power have also made him controversial . When the independence of the media was swallowed up by power and language became a weapon, his ethical standards for journalism remained consistent. He insisted on visiting local areas with pen and paper, recording and telling the "truth" he saw despite being in danger. Through the director's in-depth observation of Robb, it reveals the difficulty of distinguishing the authenticity of news in the digital era, the hidden worries of audiences losing their ability to question and understand, and the reflection on the nature of the media industry.
