UFOTV Presents: UFOs - The Secret History

Movie · Documentary

This groundbreaking feature-length documentary traces the history of one of the most powerful stories of our time, the UFO phenomenon, from the dawn of the modern era all the way up to present day. Includes an examination of the Extraterrestrial Hypothesis - the notion that some UFO reports are probably explained by extraterrestrial visitation and why visitation might not include contact or how an advanced culture might strategize contact with an emerging civilization. Also includes an in-depth examination of the abduction phenomenon, the most detailed ever to be put on film. Packed with bonus features, expert analyses and interviews with leading UFOlogists.

2010 · 1h 42m
