Synopsis
Three women set off on a road trip across America. One of them is a MAGA supporter and conspiracy theorist, just sentenced to 30 months in prison for her role in the storming of the US Capitol.
They meet other ‘patriots’ along the way and, as the journey unfolds, she leads her travel companions deeper into her labyrinth of conspiracy, determined to open their eyes to what she sees as the real truth. By the trip’s end, will she have converted them to her ‘5D world’?
Directed by Liz Smith · Research & book by Noelle Cook · Original music by Kim Halliday.

Be a part of making our next film happen
We are fiercely independent, and we intend to stay that way. It is what lets us make human rights films on our own terms. That freedom rests entirely on our audience: people who believe these stories are worth telling, and who help us tell them.
We are now raising the funds to finish our next feature documentary, Nowhere To Go, due for release in Spring 2027. Every donation brings it closer to the screen, and everyone who gives is thanked with a credit in the film itself. Will you help us get it over the line?
