Synopsis: Alex Prokop, a successful journalist, receives a rare videotape revealing new information about the attacks on 9/11. The footage was sent by Paul Cooper (Joseph Culp), a driven researcher, whose daughter died in the 9/11 attack. Sensing a good story, Prokop travels with Cooper to New york and Washington, D.C. where they uncover suppressed information implicating the U.S. government in the attacks. As Cooper introduces Propkop to key eye-witnesses, the facade of the "official story" begins to crumble. Prokop hears stories of underground explosions in the Twin Towers moments before their collapse and discovers that the firm providing WTC security was run by the President's brother.
We follow Alex and Cooper as they investigate the inexplicable collapse of the 47-story WTC Bulding #7, disprove the improbable airliner 'attack' on the Pentagon, and discover the illegal destruction of physical evidence from Grond Zero. The pressure builds as the FBI intimidates Alex's editor, McGuire (Lisa Black) to reveal key sources – while the magazine's corporate
investors threaten to kill the entire story. Plagued by the memories of his childhood under Communism (with its inherent control, and manipulation of reality, truth and events) and trying to uphold the independence of American journalism, Alex's search for the truth leads to a damgerou and shocking realization.
The Reflecting Pool is an intense, sobering investigation into the most controversial tragedy of our time. Drawn from established mainstream sources (including the New York Times) and based solely on verifiable facts, THE REFLECTING POOL is a thought-provoking study of a search for truth and the profound consequences of not looking for it any further than the nightly news.
• "The Reflecting Pool may just be the 'All the President's Men' of our time...The well-researched (and exhaustively documented on the DVD) thriller ultimately proves more compelling than 9/11-themed documentaries by taking a narrative approach and by personalizing the story." – Jim Cirile, OpEdNews, 2/19/2008.
• "This film is the perfect medium to get people thinking about 9/11: the events, the contradictions and its legacy. It manages to pack so many astounding facts about 9/11 and present them in a gripping manner...
Producing a movie on such a controversial and under-reported topic must have been tough. But it was well worth it and should be an inpiration to all of us." – Emmanual Person, 7/21/2008
• "This is a well-acted, terse and no-nonsense directed film that belies its meager budget. A dedicated group of professionals must have been behind this film. Go see it. Tell your friends to see it and remember that most official versions of political reality are any better than the worst conspiracy theory. "
