Synopsis

Oscar-nominated filmmakers Carl Deal and Tia Lessin (TROUBLE WITH WATER, THE JANES) take us behind the scenes with the warm, wisecracking granddaughter of an Orthodox rabbi — raised in a tradition of asking hard questions – as she navigates a news landscape reshaped by technology, corporate consolidation, and political assaults on truth itself. Urgent, provocative and unexpectedly funny, STEAL THIS STORY, PLEASE! is both a call to action and a celebration of resistance, posing the question: what happens to democracy when the press surrenders to power?
