Jigsaw Productions is helmed by Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Alex Gibney, considered one of the most prolific and thought-provoking documentary filmmakers of our generation. Jigsaw has produced some of the most acclaimed documentary films in recent years, including the explosive and highly popularized "Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief," one of the most watched documentaries in

HBO’s history; the Academy® and Emmy Award-winning "Taxi to the Dark Side"; the Oscar®-nominated "Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room"; the multiple Emmy Award-winning "Mea Maxima Culpa: Silence in the House of God"; Showtime’s Emmy-winning "History of the Eagles," the controversial "We Steal Secrets: The Story of Wikileaks"; and the provocative film about Lance Armstrong’s fall from grace, "The Armstrong Lie." More recent Jigsaw releases include the Peabody Award-winning "Mr. Dynamite: The Rise of James Brown," which became one of the most popular documentaries on HBO. The two-part special "Sinatra: All or Nothing At All" premiered in April 2015 on HBO, and "Steve Jobs: The Man in the Machine" premiered at the SXSW Film Festival in March 2015. The Man in the Machine, which was the opening night selection of the San Francisco International Film Festival in April 2015, came out in theaters, iTunes and VOD on September 4, 2015 and will air on CNN in 2016. Since partnering with Content Media in 2012, Jigsaw has made a foray into television, starting with "Death Row Stories." Executive Produced by Gibney and Academy Award-winning® Robert Redford and narrated by Academy Award-winning® Susan Sarandon, Death Row Stories explores a different capital murder case in each episode. Jigsaw also produced Edge of Eighteen, a groundbreaking documentary series for Al Jazeera America in which high school seniors were mentored by the team at Jigsaw as they filmed their lives on the brink of adulthood. Television projects currently in production include: The New Yorker Presents for Amazon, which brings to life the venerable The New Yorker magazine; a four-part docu-series for Netflix and a new docu-noir series for the A&E, both of which will be announced later this year. From geopolitics to sports, finance to music, all of Jigsaw’s work reflects the myriad interests of its founder, who refers to himself as a “filmmaker with journalistic baggage.” Whether the company is creating a documentary or narrative film, a scripted or unscripted series, Jigsaw adheres to a particular ethos: well-told, insightful, scrupulously researched, and visually poignant stories, which ignite and engage our curiosity. Reaching audiences on screens small or large, on platforms digital or traditional, Jigsaw aims to achieve critical and commercial success without sacrificing style or authenticity.

Take a look at this book for a movie:
Court-Gate...the Courts "Divorced from the Law" on Amazon Free ebook promotion Nov. 7, 2021.
Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing you today to ask a simple thing :
How do you explain that, on Oct 24th will be available the "so called" documentary called "We steal secrets: The story of WikiLeaks" while three days after, 's hearing case will be held in London, UK ?

This documentary is not a documentary, it’s an ugly fake and an insult to real journalists and honest citizens.

Your lying product only throws Julian in the mud, and blame him and the whole WikiLeaks staff of things they didn't even do.
In fact, WL NEVER STOLE ANY SECRET. You would know it, if you would have just a bit of good sense and do some research. Oh yes for sure !

All that was published, and still is, on WL is submitted, FACT checked, and then published. Plus, the whole "movie" through keeps on mentioning by a nickname ? Does the dude that produced that lame documentary has a problem with transgender people ? to screw Manning only…
Hatred and racialist purpose.

Plus : the movie is from 2013, and you chose to air it just THREE DAYS before Julian's hearing starts ? It's been 8 years, and you chose THIS EXACT TIME to air it ?

Your intention to lie to manipulate does not deceive anyone. It's like a media murder.

If you have an ounce of ethical, you should give up on airing this crap, which is all but the real story behind WikiLeaks and Julian Assange.

Really suc*ks, and I hope you will lose lots of Netflix Subscriptions, as all those who know either Assange or Manning or whoever in the staff knows this is just cheap propaganda.

So I guess most of the Assange's defending people that have a Netflix account will cancel it. And I will surely encourage them to do so.

Haven't you heard this quote

"Don't hit a man that is already down"?

Your contribution to torture is an indelible shame that will follow you everywhere and all your life.

Think about it.
