LOS ANGELES, May 31, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — GRB Media Ranch announces its Acquisition of #Untruth, a political documentary about psychology of “TrumpISM“ and the authoritarian strain that it seeded in the American political landscape.
This documentary by director Dan Partland, multiple Emmy Award Winning and Executive Producer and President of Doc Shop Productions, accompanies two other Partland productions available through GRB Media Ranch on the topic: #Unfit: The Psychology of Donald Trump and God & Country, a look into the growth of white, Christian nationalism in the U.S.
Released theatrically, God & Country (co-produced by Rob Reiner), opened to rave reviews in the New York Times, Christianity Today and the Hollywood Reporter and received an 88% score on Rotten Tomatoes.
Benz stated: “We acquired these programs just at the time that Donald J. Trump was found guilty by a jury of his peers. GRB Media Ranch is proud to include them in its portfolio of timely documentaries on compelling subjects produced by an acclaimed filmmaker – Dan Partland. In a historic U.S. election year where the subjects of the films reflect the deep divisions within the nation, these riveting political documentaries are essential viewing! At GRB Media Ranch, we get stories – riveting, topical, compelling.”
Partland added: “Democracies around the world are under threat like we haven’t seen in 100 years. Hopefully, yesterday’s verdict in New York is the beginning of an American recommitment to the fundamental values of liberal democracy that have been so eroded by the global wave of intolerance and authoritarianism, which is drowning our body politic.”
