Learning Beyond the Classics
Directed by Tina Satter
With Sydney Sweeney, Josh Hamilton, Marchánt Davis
Not Rated, 83 minutes, DCP

Whistleblowers have a prominent place in Hollywood films, and a growing subgenre within focuses on government employees who release classified information. This biopic follows Reality Winner (Sydney Sweeney), a former Air Force intelligence specialist, who leaked a private report demonstrating that Russia interfered in the 2016 United States presidential elections. In 2017, the FBI visited Reality's home in Georgia and questioned her about her involvement with the leaks. Her unauthorized release of information landed her a prison sentence of five years, which she wrapped up serving in 2021 with an early release.



Free for ND, SMC, HC, and IUSB Students.

Co-presented by The David A. Heskin and Marilou Brill Endowment for Excellence, Notre Dame Department of Film, Television, and Theatre.
