An insidious nexus of commercial interests, wayward ideology, government chicanery and media zealotry have combined to make this truly 'The Golden Age of Censorship.'
Forced into underground, Soviet Union-style screenings, these vilified films neither affront the public morals nor scream sedition - they simply surface inconvenient questions and politically and commercially dangerous ideas. Blacklisted, banned, censored, de-platformed and disinvited - a 'New McCarthyism' now makes reasoned discourse impossible and scandalises mere disagreement. Cheered on by a braying and compliant media, the 'Nanny State' and its simplistic swarms of online foot soldiers police 'wrongthink' through shrill do-gooders and pastel-Police State apparatchiks. MUFF is proud to present this contentious documentary as a rallying cry for all Free Speech advocates, refuseniks, troublemakers and free thinkers. Let the resistance begin...
Vaxxed: From Cover-Up to Catastrophe (USA - 2016)
Banned from Robert De Niro's 2016 Tribeca Film Festival, slandered by brigades of professional trolls, endlessly vilified by the mainstream media and deemed a 'threat to the public health' by the Australian government: 'Vaxxed: From Cover-Up to Catastrophe' is not the 'anti-vaccination film' that you have been told. The film instead follows the story of Dr. William Thompson, a senior scientist at the US CDC (the government agency charged with protecting the health of American citizens) who alleged that the CDC knowingly destroyed data in their 2004 study that showed a link between the MMR vaccine and autism. See the film yourself. Resist the government, media and pharmaceutical industry propaganda blitz and make up your own mind.
