Director Dan Farah grew up with aliens. His documentary debut The Age of Disclosure. Here, Farah makes the case that the United States has been hiding, for decades, a fount of information related to UAP (unidentified aerial phenomena) " the acronym rebrand of the stigma-ridden UFO. Making a point to "only interview people who have direct knowledge" of these programs from working within the US government was a north star for Farah. One of his early commitments came from Jay Stratton, a defense official who helped start AATIP. Stratton had an established career investigating UAP and non-human intelligence life on behalf of the government, and was responsible for briefing senior lawmakers in Congress and the White House. "I have seen with my own eyes non-human craft and non-human beings," he says plainly. After Stratton agreed to "break his silence" it ... convinced others to come forward. When the current secretary of state, Marco Rubio, agreed to take part. "Then next thing you know, General Jim Clapper was participating," Farah said of the former director of national intelligence under Barack Obama, who sat for an interview. The geopolitical arms race to reverse-engineer UAP technology is, Farah came to see, one of the biggest reasons behind the alleged cover-up. "You can't tell your friends without telling your enemies," Farah says. "Here we are now where the people who run our country are not aware of the facts."
