              Over the course of the last century, the US has encircled the world with a web of military bases unlike any other in history. Today, they amount to more than 700, in 40 countries. No continent is spared. They are one the most powerful forces at play in the world today, yet one of the less talked-about. They have shaped the lives of millions, yet remain a mystery to most. Why do countries like Germany, Italy, Japan and South Korea still host hundreds of US military bases and thousands of US soldiers? And why is the US aggressively expanding in many new countries? How do the bases affect local populations, and what stance has president Obama taken on this controversial subject? This documentary film answers these and other questions both through the words of prominent experts, intellectuals and ex-insiders – Noam Chomsky, Gore Vidal, Chalmers Johnson and others – and through the shocking but often inspiring stories of those directly affected by US bases in Italy, Japan, the Indian Ocean and elsewhere.

              Year 1992, the US presidential elections seen through the pirated satellite images of media corporations. Brian Springer reveals the wings of the media stage, contrasting footage from two different sources: the official media images beamed out to homes all around the world, and images meant for internal use by mass media multinationals.
