If you like conspiracy theories, you might like Manipulation. It’s a movie about a powerful elite that hides in plain sight; check out the trailer.
It’s not giving away much, but it looks interesting. It’s like the Last Movie Outpost, where we control everything you need to watch and influence you all for our own gains of world domination. I’ve said too much!
Manipulation stars Pawel Lawrynowicz, Feodor Atkine, Heino Ferch, James Faulkner, Arnaud Binard, Pawel Delag, and Predrag Bjelac. David Balda is the director, and weirdly, on the IMDb, there is no writer. The story:
An omnipresent threat of manipulation looms over the world. It can emerge anywhere, at any time, and by any means.
The rest is from the press release. Manipulation is the first international film by Czech director David Balda, who successfully released his debut feature Narusitel (Intruder) in 2019 at the age of eighteen. This made David one of the world’s youngest film directors to have a full-length feature film released in Czech cinemas and on Netflix.
In the film, a powerful elite society operates in plain sight while exerting unseen control across Europe and beyond. What appears to be influence is, in fact, a sophisticated system of manipulation embedded within both political structures and the Church itself. As the layers are peeled back, the thriller reveals an omnipresent threat — adaptive, relentless, and far more powerful than initially believed — challenging the very notion of free will and authority in the modern world.
Manipulation will be in UK cinemas from the 6th November.
