Movie Haiku:Edward Snowden has been a shadow figure since he made the decision in 2013 to release evidence of illegal covert surveillance programs. In this remarkable doc, we not only listen to him explain himself, we also watch as he determines when, where & how to transform himself from a private citizen into the whistleblower who set off an international media firestorm.
