In film, bias is inevitable. Arguably, one can't even make a film without taking some kind of position. But what becomes apparent, and therefore unique, about "9/11: Press for Truth," is the position it takes.

It's almost like a news report, yet somehow entertaining. It would be misleading to say the film is simply fact piled on fact. There is emotion in the film, there is humanity; both of which come through, primarily, in the interviews. But the most important aspect of that humanity is that we only see it in two situations: As a reaction to these back-page facts, or a reaction to the events themselves.

That's the magic of Press for Truth. The only real bias of the film lies in its concentration on the families of the victims. Yet that's the story that hasn't been told. Instead of conspiracy theories, we get hard fact. Instead of emotional manipulation, we get simple emotion that doesn't demand a particular reaction. It's a film that, in the tradition of the best cinema, asks questions and allows for reflection.

Some might be turned off that theories about how or why the towers fell aren't included in this film. There are a number of similar questions that aren't asked, but director Ray Nowosielski answered such concerns best recently when he explained that Press for Truth isn't concerned with finding out how things happened, but finding out what happened. The truth is that we simply don't know yet. As in most cases, emotion has clouded our true priorities. Press for Truth aims to clear the air.

In a market indundated with films that demand blame, it's the perfect time for a movie that demands answers first.
