Featured reviews
The media has systematically and robustly orchestrated a narrative around Michael Jackson that is directly rebutted by primary evidence. Michael Jackson is a case study for analysing the "free press" and whether a powerful industry like the media should be free and unaccountable for knowingly publishing false information to millions of people around the world.
This documentary brings court documents and evidence to life in a way that I have never seen before. The documentary is also a product of the "free press" who have been free to leave this evidence gathering dust for decades. I hope people watch this with an open mind and begin to understand that they are being lied to by an industry that shapes our views, values and society.

The facts and the information provided in this documentary is not at all new to any true MJ fan as the fandom is well versed about all this. Danny Wu, the director became a fan in the researching process and made this zero budget documentary to help anyone understand why Michael Jackson settled the civil case back in 1994 and how that never ever meant that MJ was guilty. Jordan Chandler (the first accuser) being used by his own father, Victor guitterez and NAMBLA's association with the accuser's father, extortion scheme..etc is all very well put together.
But the production quality was horrendous. It was hard to ignore the distracting music and jarring editing, but I suppose the budget was small.
As an American, realizing how long I have been brainwashed in regards to an innocent man is depressing. Michael Jackson was lynched in the court of public opinion. Square One may be his saving grace for his living relatives.
People behind this documentary truly deserve praises. First, people participating in this project did not get paid. They only want the truth out. And the director did an awesome job researching into MJ's first allegation that started everything and all the background information that wasn't shared by media. I found myself very angry and sad while watching it, about the fact that Michael Jackson was put through such an humiliating ordeal and emotional pain (his voice in that video statement broke my heart). I recommend this documentary to anyone who cares about truth and justice.
