The groundbreaking history documentary Bodyguard of Lies releases exclusively on Paramount+ Tuesday, Sept. 23.
Directed and produced by Dan Krauss, Bodyguard of Lies pulls back the curtain on the Afghanistan war and reveals the many falsehoods fed to Americans during the time.
Those looking to catch Bodyguard of Lies can find the documentary available for streaming through Paramount+. Those who have yet to commit to a paid plan through the platform can enjoy a 7-day free trial after signing up.
According to a Paramount+ press release, Bodyguard of Lies is the first "unvarnished documentary of the history of the Afghanistan war, exposing the falsehoods told to Americans and the secrets kept over four administrations."
The documentary includes "damning testimonies from insiders, confidential documents, never-before-seen footage and private audio recordings of those at the highest levels of government." Additionally, the film examines failed war policies and strategies and works to figure out why those hefty decisions were made, while revealing the cost of those plans.
