New Showbiz Analysis

The film serves as a systemic critique of institutional power rather than a study of demographic diversity. Its primary value lies in its skepticism toward Western political and social hierarchies. While it successfully challenges the legitimacy of established authority, it fails to provide meaningful representation across most identity categories. The narrative is heavily centered on Western-centric institutions and elite structures, focusing on the homogeneity of these power structures.

Official Synopsis

THE ILLUMINATI draws on historical records, footage and photos which take the viewer on a voyage of discovery - it starts with the JFK assassination, through the dark depths of the two Gulf 'Wars', and brings you bang up to date with details of how members of the SKULL & BONES secret society engineered the 2000 and the 2004 U.S. Presidential Elections. This film takes you deep into the forests of Northern California with secretly filmed footage courtesy of ALEX JONES, exposing the Bohemian Club's annual rituals and mock sacrifices - ceremonies which have been attended for years by U.S. Presidents, Vice-Presidents and CEO's from the world's largest corporations. We then voyage deep into the heart of Westminster and expose the fact that Freemasonic temples exist within the House of Commons and that the Queen of England is Grand Patronness of International World Freemasonry.
