Inspired by the acclaimed book by Naomi Oreskes and Erik Conway, MERCHANTS OF DOUBT takes audiences on a satirically comedic, yet illuminating ride into the heart of conjuring American spin. Filmmaker Robert Kenner lifts the curtain on a secretive group of highly charismatic, silver- tongued pundits-for-hire who present themselves in the media as scientific authorities – yet have the contrary aim of spreading maximum confusion about well-studied public threats ranging from toxic chemicals to pharmaceuticals to climate change.
Robert Kenner was born in New Rochelle, New York. He has directed several documentaries for television including The Lost Fleet of Guadalcanal and America’s Endangered Species: Don’t Say Goodbye for National Geographic, and Russia’s Last Tsar. His debut feature documentary, Food, Inc. premiered at the Festival. Merchants of Doubts is his latest film.
