The Panama Deception (1992)

Directed by Barbara Trent

“Exposing The Cover Up!”

Documentary, History, War · 1h 31m

This winner of the 1993 Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature details the case that the 1989 invasion of Panama by the US was motivated not by the need to protect American soldiers, restore democracy or even capture Noriega. It was to force Panama to submit the will of the United States after Noriega had exhausted his usefulness.
