Product Description

From Academy Award-winning documentary filmmaker Alex Gibney comes this gripping, edge-of-your-seat thriller about Julian Assange and the creation of WikiLeaks, the controversial website that facilitated the largest security breach in U.S. history. Paralleling Assange’s rise and fall with that of Pfc. Bradley Manning, the troubled young soldier who leaked hundreds of thousands of classified documents, We Steal Secrets: The Story of WikiLeaks is a “riveting, nail-bitingly tense” (Chris Nashawaty, Entertainment Weekly), multi-layered exposé about transparency in the information age and our ever-elusive search for the truth.

Reviewed in the United States on June 17, 2013
I imagined this film would be interesting because it is directed and produced by Alex Gibney, whose impressive body of work includes TAXI TO THE DARK SIDE and ENRON: THE SMARTEST GUYS IN THE ROOM. What I did not expect was one of the most amazing and informative documentaries I have ever seen!

I've always been a bit conflicted about Julian Assange because on the one hand I feel his passion for exposing the wrongdoings and hypocrisy of governments and corporations is a noble undertaking that ultimately benefits the little guy and woman (who by comparison are specks of sand next to the big and powerful of our society). But another part of me feels Assange got so carried away with the power he attained through his Wikileaks website that he became many of the things he so ardently claimed to abhor. This documentary examines that dichotomy and more with the precision of a surgeon's scalpel. You may not walk away from it with a different view of Assange or his site, but I guarantee you'll be more informed.

Even more interesting in this film than the story of Julian Assange is the tale of Bradley Manning. There were times during the Manning segments that my mouth hung open in utter shock. What a troubled and terribly tragic figure Manning is! I have no doubt he was motivated by good intentions when he provided so many secret documents to Wikileaks, but there's also no doubt those intentions were deeply muddled by profound inner turmoil. My heart sank for him. Others of you may disagree with me and respond very differently.

I strongly suggest you watch this film, particularly in light of Edward Snowden, the newest whistleblower emerging on the scene. I give WE STEAL SECRETS the highest possible rating: something I rarely do. It's just that good!!

Great story about Wikileaks and how US, Euro, Asian, African combined govt tactics have been used to suppress and subvert facts that many politicians and govts have been hiding from people all over the world. Whether you agree or not with Assange's ideas, the fact that we're now finding out how criminal our own governments are against the supposed free nations/people of the world should be an eye opener for those who prefer to duck there head in the sand and expect govt protection at no cost to your privacy, or willing to give away everyone else's privacy for their own gain.
In a world where stories last only a day or two anymore before they become boring repetitive attention grabbers (entirely overplayed by the media for way long), it's refreshing to see investigative journalism and hard work to inform people is not left in bureaucratically run news organizations who are told to pick and choose what stories to run.
It should be a shameful embarrassment to those who think they live in a free society and turn their heads because their "beer and bassboat" aren't being taken yet.

Your feelings toward Julian Assange and Chelsea (still officially Bradley as long as she is imprisoned by US Army) Manning are, of course, determined by your politics. Mr. Assange may have a "difficult" personality, but this reviewer finds the ACTIONS of these individuals, who are the focus of this documentary, thoroughly admirable. The film was completed before anyone had heard of Edward Snowden, whose revelations about the extent of government spying on US citizens have boosted the self-esteem of paranoids everywhere. Mr. Assange's activities are, of necessity, highly secretive of course, but we are able to learn something about his background and how he operates. Many still photos of Manning on duty in the Iraq theater of ops are displayed. BTW, the phrase "We steal secrets" is taken from an on-camera interview with a former NSA/CIA chieftain, simply describing what those agencies do for a living. It's well known that the US even spies on its "allies," and vice versa. This chap is one of the defenders of the Established Order who are given time in the film; I guess this is called "balanced reporting." Their presence at least gave me a few good laughs. Some former colleagues of Assange air their grievances against him. Even the hacker turned snitch who reported Manning to the Army gets a chance to shed a (crocodile?) tear of regret.

I maintain that Alex Gibney is one of the best documentarians working in film today. His "Taxi To The Dark Side," about what happened to one individual in Afghanistan who was accused of aiding Osama bin-Laden, remains in my view one of the best and most important documentaries of the past decade. "We Steal Secrets" isn't quite on that level but certainly worth checking out. Long live the resistance to Big Brother!!

Recently Bradley Manning's supporters in a rally outside of his trial had to turn their T-shirts inside out because they had "Truth" written on them. This documentary doesn't hide the truth, of course Manning redacted most of what he released to protect the innocent. Some secrets have been stolen and now they are out, so you might as well have them too. This is as thorough a case as the defense could make in 2 hours for leniency in sentencing. Manning has already plead guilty to leaking. Watch it and boost its rating. This is a must see! You will come away informed!

Brilliant assemblage of footage. Illuminates multiple sides of Assange. Stimulates confusion (good thing) about the complexity of question: Can secrets be good; can transparency be sometimes immoral? Or, not? Also stirs the question of how much the revolution over who owns information; who tells us what information is important; and who decides what is fact...IS in fact THE current revolution superseding all national and international political upheavals currently at hand.

5.0 out of 5 stars Aufstieg und Fall des Julian Assange
Reviewed in Germany on April 6, 2014
Die Enthüllungen des Whistleblowers Bradley Manning, der Aufstieg und Fall von WikiLeaks und Julian Assange: Regisseur Alex Gibney erzählt die wahre Geschichte spannend nach. Hier musste der Filmemacher nichts mehr erfinden, weil die Wirklichkeit schon alle Zutaten eines guten Thrillers bietet: Kriegsverbrechen. Vertuschung. Aufdeckung. Whistleblower. Überwachung. Spionage. Geheimdienste vs. Hacker. Verräter. Heroisierung. Anfeindung. Verleumdung. Eitelkeiten. Überheblichkeit. Realitätsverlust. Paranoia. Moralisches Scheitern einer Ikone… Das alles wird packend und gut nachvollziehbar Schritt für Schritt erzählt.

Bei aller Spannung und Dramaturgie bleibt die Darstellung weitgehend sachlich und faktengetreu und stützt sich auf eine Menge authentisches Material, das im Film gezeigt wird. Die relevanten Personen, die sich gegenüber dem Regisseur äußern wollten und konnten, kommen zu Wort und sorgen für unterschiedliche Perspektiven. Julian Assange selbst wollte nicht reden, dafür erzählt als Insider der ehemalige WikiLeaks-Kollege Daniel Domscheit-Berg aus der Historie der Organisation. Die Chatprotokolle des Bradley Manning wiederum, aus denen reichlich zitiert wird, erzählen die menschlich bedrückende Geschichte eines traumatisierten Soldaten aus dem Irak-Krieg.

Wer die Geschehnisse rund um Mannings Enthüllungen noch einmal Revue passieren lassen möchte und sich für die Story hinter WikiLeaks interessiert, dem sei die vorliegende Reportage empfohlen. Assange-Anhänger seien aber gewarnt: Trotz seiner Verdienste um die Aufklärung von Skandalen, die gut dokumentiert werden, rückt die Kultfigur gegen Ende des Films ins Zwielicht.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 4, 2017
A story of a guy selling? Seeking fame for a worthy cause and convincing others to be a platform for others to pass on Secrets, to expose their hypocrisy. Moral of this well told true story, whatever cause state secrets/grass of what ever level/whistleblower they all get affected in some way and this is a story of one that failed and the domino affect and consequences.

Film confidentiel s'il en est ! pas de publicité et pas de sortie en salles ? cependant ce film est comme tout ce qui touche Wikileaks , passionnant comme le sera Citizen four je pense , mais qui a eu le malheur de passer le premier et pour cause ! et qui ne doit pas plaire à tous le monde bien sur .
Il est a noter que le travail de Benedict Cumberbatch dans le cinquième pouvoir est remarquable d'observation et de recherches pour le rôle "compliqué" de Julian Assange !
