Afternoons

• Feature

  For years, it was easy to dismiss talk of UAPs, Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena, formerly known as UFOs. But director and producer Dan Farah argues that moment is over. In his new documentary, The Age of Disclosure, he speaks with 34 high-level figures from the U.S. government, military, and intelligence world who say non-human intelligent life has already made contact, and a global race is underway to reverse engineer the technology involved. The film makes clear this isn't the age of fringe speculation anymore; it's a turning point. The Age of Disclosure is available to rent or purchase on Prime Video.
