Write a short summary of what happens in the film

It’s nice to know what you know, but it’s more powerful to know what you don’t. Journalism in Australia has never been under greater threat. Powerful forces use strict defamation laws to bully journalists into submission and shut down the truth. To launch the new brand platform ‘Minds Wide Open’ for The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age newspapers, we created a film in the form of a cease and desist notice. Ongoing closed mindedness will be met with deep inquiry and unflinching journalism.
