Oliver Stone: The Outsider

American film director and screenwriter Oliver Stone is behind films such as Platoon, JFK, Natural Born Killers and Scarface. For decades, he has challenged the image of the United States and its history. This documentary portrays the Oscar-winning filmmaker who has made the search for truth his life's work. The Vietnam War and the assassination of Kennedy were decisive events that shaped both Stone and the modern United States. Through unique material from his personal archive and filmography, a close portrait emerges of a controversial filmmaker obsessed with exposing power and national traumas.
