This movie is aimed at low-info voters and Boomers who do the film festival circuit. Most of us who pay attention to such things already figured out, or were already informed, that Huawei was nothing more than an arm of the Chinese Communist Party. The site for the film is up (here) but we're still early in its hype cycle, so it's not much more than a landing page for its promotional materials combined with an official point-of-contact link. This is not a documentary; it's a drama inspired by the actual events, and likely reveals far more than it officially acknowledges as to what has gone on.

The film focuses on the concept of "cyberwar" while actually being a shot in the ongoing narrative war between pro-Western elites such as the God-Emperor and those who want it to fall, which does include--for their own reasons--the CCP and their Hollywood allies. The narrative war target here is Hollywood; this film is outside their system, and this is a show of force to demonstrate that outsiders are capable of producing material that Hollywood claims implicitly to be theirs alone to command.

No doubt it has some faults to it, but that it exists shows that Bannon gets Narrative Warfare better than most on the God-Emperor's side. The media will react, for now, by freezing it out of their media entirely and trying to freeze it out of the festival circuit. The reaction will be to demonstrate that viable alternatives exist, paving the way for others to follow such as the Alt-Hero movie Rebel's Run.

And that's good for us, because once the better-heeled players blaze the trail we smaller ones will have a road to follow that isn't converged by SJWs.
