Film Synopsis:
The 2013 NSA spying scandal exposed vast programs to monitor personal communications. Now, utilities and governments are reaching into your own home, through fast-tracked "smart" meters and spy-ready technology. But what if you have a choice? At stake is in-home surveillance, skyrocketing bills, emerging health risks and hacking vulnerabilities.
With compelling insight from whistleblowers, government agents, lawyers, environmentalists & doctors, the award-winning Take Back Your Power takes us on a journey to expose corruption and erosion of rights in the name of "smart" and "green." What you'll discover will surprise, unsettle and empower you.
Awards:
Winner, AwareGuide Transformational Film Of The Year (2013)
Winner, Indie Fest Annual Humanitarian Award (2013)
Official Selection, Berkeshire International Film Festival (2014)
