Inspired by the acclaimed book by Naomi Oreskes and Erik Conway, Merchants of Doubt takes the audience on a satirically comedic, yet illuminating ride into the heart of conjuring American spin. Filmmaker Robert Kenner lifts the curtain on a secretive group of highly charismatic, silver-tongued pundits-for-hire who present themselves in the media as scientific authorities – yet have the contrary aim of spreading maximum confusion about well-studied public threats ranging from toxic chemicals to pharmaceuticals to climate change.
 

The United Nations Regional Information Centre aims to inform and engage Europeans in issues of global reach.
 

Ciné-ONU is a Europe-wide initiative of United Nations film screenings and conversations on world issues.
