'American Empire' documentary seeks to expose America's collective madness

The controversial documentary film "American Empire" made its North American premiere last month in Los Angeles and New York.

Described as "not just a film, a documentary or an expose, but an explosion of
reality that the world must see to believe," the documentary was also showcased at the Abu Dhabi Film Festival last October.

"The path of the American Empire, is An Act of Collective Madness," states filmmaker, Patrea Patrick, who connects the dots to what's happening in America and the world.

From the Federal Reserve and bank bailouts, to destruction of the economy through corporate and government ties, Patrick's film seeks to shed light on a world that is screaming for help.

The film declares that there simply aren't enough resources to continue down the path we're currently on and that our real wealth - our resources - are being turned into commodities. It goes on to explore how interest, debt, and inflation is being manipulated by Wall Street.

In a stunning interview in the film, G.E. Griffin states "These people are running the country and we don't even know that they are there," referring to Wall Street, WTO, The World Bank, and the Industrial Military Complex, "We The People' are silenced."

Additional interviews with noteworthy speakers from across the globe, include Tariq Ali, Vandana Shiva, John Perkins, Maude Barlow, Frances Morre Lappe`, John Robbins, Paul McGuire, Gerald Celente and Jeffery Smith.

Acclaimed filmmaker Oliver Stone calls the documentary "provocative... it makes you think...a very well done movie."

The Huffington Post described it as a "(R)evolution in film" and Screen Daily proclaimed it "a gripping analysis of the current state of the US."

"No one had stepped forward and exposed the spider web of corruption that is destroying our planet and ruining our lives," Patrick told the Huffington Post. "Once the curtain is pulled back, this corruption can be seen for what it is. That is what made it so interesting to do this film."
