If you saw it and liked it, please consider writing a customer review!

Lynn Hershman Leeson's "Strange Culture," the award-winning documentary about Steve's case, will be available on DVD on March 25th. Amazon is already taking pre-orders (and if you order via the link on the CAE Defense Fund website, 10% of proceeds will benefit the CAE Trial Fund).

Amazon posted a positive editorial review, but the film really needs some customer reviews.

The film has helped tremendously to spread the word about Steve's case, but Lynn herself went quite far into debt to make the film. So, the more people who see it, the better for everyone!

We would appreciate it if anyone who has seen the film could post your comments on the site:

In this moving and wildly innovative film, director Lynn Hershman Leeson tells the terrifying true story of how one man s personal tragedy turns into persecution by a paranoid and overzealous government.

Steve Kurtz s nightmare began on May 11, 2004, when he awoke to find his wife Hope dead of a heart attack. Police responding to his distressed 911 call became suspicious of scientific paraphernalia in his house (materials for an art project on genetically modified food) and contacted the FBI. Soon his world was turned upside down. Only hours after his wife s tragic death he was suddenly a murder suspect, an accused bioterrorist, and a pariah to all but his closest friends.

Told through a unique blend of interviews, documentary footage, and reconstructed scenes starring Tilda Swinton, Thomas Jay Ryan, and Peter Coyote, Hershman s critically-acclaimed film is a sophisticated, look at how the traumatic events of 9/11 altered American society and undermined its long-held values.
