Win Passes To The Advance Screening Of THE FIFTH ESTATE In St. Louis

In 2010, a website dedicated to protecting whistleblowers released an avalanche of classified U.S. documents that triggered a new age of high-stakes secrecy and explosive news leaks. Now, in a dramatic thriller based on real events, DreamWorks Pictures’ THE FIFTH ESTATE reveals the quest to expose the deceptions and corruptions of power that turned this Internet upstart into the 21st century’s most fiercely debated organization.

The story begins as WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange (Benedict Cumberbatch) and his colleague Daniel Domscheit-Berg (Daniel Brühl) team up to become underground watchdogs of the privileged and powerful. On a shoestring, they create an online platform that allows whistleblowers to anonymously leak covert data, shining a light on the dark recesses of government secrets and corporate crimes.

Soon, they are breaking more hard news than the world’s most legendary media organizations. But when Assange and Domscheit-Berg gain access to the biggest trove of confidential intelligence documents in U.S. history, they find themselves at odds as they struggle with a defining question of our time: What are the costs of keeping secrets in a free society? And what are the costs of exposing them?

The film will be released in U.S. theaters on October 18, 2013.
