Cover-Up is a political thriller that follows the explosive career of Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter Seymour Hersh.

Urgent and deeply reported, the film is both a portrait of a relentless journalist and an indictment of institutional violence — revealing a cycle of impunity in the U.S. military and intelligence agencies.

Drawing on exclusive access to Hersh’s notes, and weaving together primary documents and archival footage, Cover-Up captures the power and process of investigative journalism.
