The 5th Eye

This documentary details the efforts of a farmer, teacher, and priest who embark on a mission to deflate a giant radome at the Waihopai spy base. Their actions serve as a protest against New Zealand's involvement in the US-led wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, highlighting grassroots activism against government surveillance.

Additionally, the film covers a raid on an internet millionaire's mansion, which leads to an investigation into illegal domestic surveillance conducted by the Government Communications Security Bureau (GCSB). The narrative also includes a whistleblower from the NSA who exposes the operations of the Five Eyes network, emphasizing the global implications of mass surveillance.

With a runtime of 112 minutes, The 5th Eye provides a detailed examination of these pressing issues, making it a significant documentary for collectors interested in the intersection of politics, privacy, and civil liberties.
