The documentary brings together a diverse group of high-profile figures, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, former Director of National Intelligence General Jim Clapper, and former Department of Defense official Lue Elizondo. These individuals share their insights and experiences related to Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP), commonly known as UFOs. The film suggests that for decades, there has been a concerted effort to conceal information about non-human intelligent life and that major nations have been engaged in a secretive race to understand and replicate advanced technologies of non-human origin.
What if the biggest secret in human history has been hiding in plain sight? What if governments worldwide have been engaged in an 80-year cover-up of non-human intelligent life? That’s exactly what The Age of Disclosure, the explosive new documentary by Dan Farah, sets out to prove.
Set to make its world premiere at the SXSW Film Festival in March 2025, this documentary is already making waves. With unprecedented access to high-ranking U.S. government, military, and intelligence officials, The Age of Disclosure promises to blow the lid off the long-rumored secrecy surrounding Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAPs) — aka UFOs.
Director and producer Dan Farah isn’t just throwing together another UFO documentary filled with grainy footage and wild conspiracy theories. Instead, he’s compiled a jaw-dropping lineup of 34 senior officials who have worked directly on UAP-related programs. These aren’t random talking heads; we’re talking about names like:
Each of these insiders goes on record, claiming that the U.S. government has not only known about non-human intelligence for decades but has actively worked to reverse-engineer alien technology. According to Stratton, this effort is "the atomic weapon on steroids"—whoever figures it out first will lead the world for the foreseeable future.
If this all sounds like the plot of a sci-fi movie, it’s not. Over the last few years, real-world events have put UAPs at the center of public and political discussion.
In 2023 and 2024, bipartisan Congressional hearings on UAPs shocked the world when former military and intelligence personnel testified under oath that the U.S. government has retrieved non-human craft and possibly non-human biological entities. This led to the UAP Disclosure Act, a bill pushed by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, Senators Rubio, Gillibrand, and Rounds.
The goal? To force full government transparency about what’s really known about UAPs.
Unfortunately, the act was blocked by special interest groups, leaving the truth shrouded in mystery once again. But that didn’t stop Senator Schumer from stating:
"The American public has a right to learn about technologies of unknown origins, non-human intelligence, and unexplainable phenomena."
One of the wildest things about The Age of Disclosure is that it was made in complete secrecy over two years. Only now, ahead of its SXSW premiere, is the project being revealed.
The film’s first trailer has already set social media on fire, with ex-CIA official Jim Semivan dropping what might be the biggest bombshell yet:
"UAPs are here. They are real. And they are not human."
Meanwhile, Lue Elizondo, a former Department of Defense official, adds:
"You have information being locked away that can change the trajectory of our species."
With statements like these, it’s no surprise that the documentary has been hailed as the most well-sourced and credible film on the UFO phenomenon ever made.
Unlike most UFO-related content that relies on speculation and amateur footage, The Age of Disclosure is rooted in firsthand government testimony. That alone makes it a game-changer.
For decades, the stigma around UFOs has kept serious discussion at bay, often relegating it to the realm of conspiracy theories. But in recent years, U.S. officials have confirmed the existence of unknown aerial objects performing maneuvers beyond human capability.
Now, The Age of Disclosure takes this a step further, alleging that governments worldwide have been engaged in a silent arms race to reverse-engineer this technology—a race that, if won, could alter the balance of global power forever.

If even half of what’s being alleged in this film is true, it raises massive questions about humanity’s place in the universe and why this information has been withheld for so long.
