19th Annual 9/11 Truth Film Festival

The 19th Annual 9/11 Truth Film Festival will be held Monday, September 11, 2023at the Grand Lake Theatre, 3200 Grand Avenue, Oakland. Three films will hold their US premieres, including two presentations originally given at the Grand Lake Theatre. The Film Festival is dedicated to the memory of David Ray Griffin, Graeme MacQueen and Allan Rees, great champions for 9/11 Truth who have passed away, since last year’s film festival.

“The Mysterious Collapse of WTC 7”[ See Trailer] is based upon a book and lecture by the late David Ray Griffin. The subtitle is "Why the final official report about 9/11 is unscientific and false." Griffin was a renowned theologian and scholar and one of the most influential intellectuals of his era. Author of over 50 books, nominated twice for the Nobel Peace Prize, compared to Martin Luther King and Gandhi for his courage and dedication to seeking truth, his voice was notably censored when he began turning his attention to the shadow side of the American Empire. He wrote a large number of books on the subject and delivered this particular lecture in 2009.

“War on Democracy” features a 2016 presentation by Canadian Graeme MacQueen, who received his Ph.D. from Harvard, and taught at McMaster University for 30 years. He lead their Peace Studies program and co-directed peace-building projects in Sri Lanka, Gaza, Croatia, and Afghanistan. He was an editor for the Journal of 9/11 Studies, a major organizer of the Toronto Hearings held on the 10 year anniversary of 9/11. He authored several books, including “The 2001 Anthrax Deception: The Case for a Domestic Conspiracy” which he addresses in the film.

“Peace, War, and 9/11” also features Graeme MacQueen, but encompasses a larger, deeper understanding of wars, peace, and the forces that steer the public mind. The film will also premiere in Toronto a few days before the film festival.

“9/11: High Crime to Courtroom” is a work in progress, spearheaded by Richard Gage, AIA, founder of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth. Richard Gage will also be doing public presentations in the Bay Area on his West Coast Tour this September.

The Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance has been organizing film festivals, conferences, events, rallies, marches, and producing educational materials in the wake of the events of September 11, 2001, and is the oldest still active local 9/11 Truth group. Allan Rees, who passed away recently was a member, as well as the founder of No Lies Radio. Rees often webstreamed the 9/11 Truth Film Festival and is greatly missed.
