9/11: A Conspiracy Theory
The film opens with the official story stated as bluntly as possible: nineteen men armed with boxcutters, directed by a kidney patient in an Afghan cave using a satellite phone and a laptop, defeated the most heavily defended airspace on earth. From that framing, the documentary lays out the case that the accepted account of September 11, 2001 does not hold together, walking through the hijackings, the collapse of the towers, and the response of the American military and government that day. It follows the pattern of the 9/11 truth movement's arguments, treating the mainstream narrative as the theory that needs defending rather than the baseline. Interviews and narration build the case point by point rather than simply asserting it. Whether or not the argument persuades, the film is a coherent, structured presentation of the skeptical position on the attacks, aimed at viewers already primed to distrust the official timeline.
