rubbish

That is true GC about these films they have been discredited, but by the large amount of money that the sugar barons have used to due so.
Large amount of money and lawyers where used to bare these films from film festivals and sales.

Look how many sources there are for these films and how many videos I have posted!!!!
Could they all be incorrect?
Are they all incorrect?
So many sources, so little tie to discredit then all.
And not just the films but the articles News articles by credible News sources.
