The documentary "Sirius" (2013) is a pseudo-documentary directed by Amardeep Kaleka, based on ufologist Steven M. Greer's book "Hidden Truth, Forbidden Knowledge"[2]. The film is narrated by Thomas Jane and follows Greer's efforts to reveal information about top secret energy projects and propulsion techniques[2]. It features interviews from former officials from the government and military, as well as images and a DNA analysis of the 6-inch (15 cm) skeleton known as Ata that was found in the Atacama desert in northern Chile in 2003[2].
The documentary premiered on April 22, 2013, in Los Angeles, California, and online[2]. It received mostly negative reviews from critics, with The Hollywood Reporter criticizing the film for being undiscerning in its choice of interviewees and scattershot in its presentation, making potentially credible subjects look "nutso by association"[2]. The Village Voice also gave a predominantly negative review, expressing frustration over the film not living up to its potential[2].
Despite the negative reception, the documentary has been made available on various platforms, including Filmin, Prime Video, and Gaia[1][4]. It explores the idea that the Earth has been visited by advanced Inter-Stellar Civilizations that can travel through other dimensions faster than the speed of light, and that humans have also developed these systems but those in power have suppressed them to keep us at the mercy of fossil fuels[4].
The documentary has been praised for its potential to educate people on the existence of several key things that affect everyone's life, and for its ability to make "critical thinkers" out of more people[3]. However, it has also been criticized for being too wordy and hyped up, and for not providing enough facts, statistics, and real raw data[3].
