In January 2013, Laura Poitras received an encrypted e-mail from a stranger who called himself Citizen Four. In it, he offered her inside information about illegal wiretapping practices of the NSA and other intelligence agencies. Poitras had already been working for several years on a film about monitoring programs in the US, the result of the terrorist attacks on 11 September 2001. In June 2013, she went to Hong Kong with her camera for the first meeting with the stranger, who identified himself as Edward Snowden. She was met there by investigative journalist Glenn Greenwald and The Guardian intelligence reporter Ewen MacAskill. Several other meetings followed. The recordings gained from this form the basis of the film.

Lauded as heroes by some, denounced as traitors by others, they’re the “digital dissidents” whose revelations have made headlines around the world. “Criticize me, hate me, but think about what matters in the issues. Right? Think about the world you want to live in.” Edward Snowden

The decision by former US National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden to reveal covert US surveillance programs exposed the massive capabilities of the US spy agency to monitor communications around the globe. “The way in which these disclosures happened have been damaging to the United States and damaging to our Intelligence capabilities.” US President Barack Obama

In speaking out, Snowden’s joined a group of self declared intelligence whistleblowers who have risked imprisonment. “There was a moment where he said very clearly, very destinctly that I showed him the right way. I had always hoped that a Snowden would come along.“ Thomas Drake

In this documentary from German broadcaster WDR, Snowden, along with other whistleblowers from the NSA and Britain’s MI5 talk about their motivations for speaking out.
