Influence
By Diana Neille & Richard Poplak
The British publicist, Lord Tim Bell, was a specialist in the field of restoring the reputation of shady politicians and companies with suspicious activities. By meticulously retracing his career, this striking documentary selected at the Sundance Festival paints, with the help of rare archival footage and exclusive interviews, the portrait of an unscrupulous character responsible for the politicisation of modern communication over the last 40 years. A stunning film.
