Tina Satter's gripping directorial debut Reality was a critically acclaimed breakout at the Berlin Film Festival. In an enlightening snapshot of recent U.S. history, Emmy Award-nominee Sydney Sweeney stars in the incredible true story of a young woman who stirred up a media storm when she leaked a classified report about Russian interference in U.S. elections to the press.
On a Saturday afternoon in June 2017, twenty-five-year-old Reality Winner is confronted at her Georgia home by the FBI. A cryptic conversation begins, and Reality's life quickly begins to unravel...
Adapted from her 2019 stage play Is This A Room, Satter creates a tense thriller using dialogue taken directly from the FBI's transcript of the gruelling interrogation that followed. By turns nail-biting, darkly funny, and surreal, the film boasts a sensational performance from Sydney Sweeney as the first whistle-blower in the Trump era.
