“In Whose Interest” is a fast moving and powerful 26-minute documentary in response to 9/11. Filmmaker David Kaplowitz leads us on an eyeopening journey, questioning the effects of US foreign policy over the past 50+ years. Revealing a pattern of intervention, the film focuses on Guatemala, Vietnam, East Timor, El Salvador, and Palestine/ Israel. Archive footage, photographs and media tidbits are dynamically interwoven with personal eye-witness accounts, commentary from academics (such as Noam Chomsky), religious leaders and politicians. “In Whose Interest” is informative and disturbingly honest, yet upbeat,
with twists of irony and humor.
