The story
The Age of Disclosure is a documentary that features interviews with a wide range of participants, including ufologists and former and current U.S. government officials from the military, intelligence community, and Congress. These individuals assert that alien intelligence is present on Earth and has been subject to a decades-long government cover-up. The film explores the concept of 'disclosure'—the moment when governments would reveal withheld information about extraterrestrial life. By highlighting these testimonies, the film delves into claims regarding recovered alien materials, secret programs, and the institutional secrecy surrounding the topic.
Full plot (contains spoilers)
The film features interviews with former and present U.S. elected, military, and intelligence officials, ufologists, and fringe scientists who claim the U.S. government has known about and been retrieving alien technology since 1947. Luis Elizondo narrates the film, detailing his role in the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP) and alleging the existence of a 'Legacy Program' that has concealed extraterrestrial evidence for over 80 years. Other figures, such as Jay Stratton, compare the race to reverse-engineer alien technology to the Manhattan Project. The film includes testimony from high-ranking officials like Marco Rubio, and various members of Congress and the military. Specific segments feature military pilots who have encountered UFOs, as well as experts discussing the potential biological effects of these encounters. The narrative builds on the 'disclosure' concept, which refers to a hypothetical future where the government finally admits to the existence of extraterrestrial life.
