After the fire that destroyed his home, after telling the same story for 20 years, after losing his marriage, after working for the FBI, after becoming the most blacklisted author in the history of Iowa, after photographing Martin Luther King Jr. and the Amish, after fleeing Iowa as an exile, Zielinski’s car ran out of gas in Columbia, Missouri in 2006. He walked into the public access TV station with a mud-caked VHS camera and said, “There’s a tape stuck in here that will bring down the U.S. government. Will you help me?” John Anderson of Variety says, “Both a profile and a provocation, Zielinski is also a dream match of style and subject, blending the low-budget, crazy quilt filmmaking of Chase Thompson and Ryan Walker with conspiracy-theorist extraordinaire John M. Zielinski, whose portrait seems perfectly framed by the pic’s fractured assembly.” Often funny, sometimes tragic, and ultimately moving, Zielinski is a one-of-a-kind nonfiction film about an unforgettable character, with jaw-dropping photos, fascinating footage, and an incredible original soundtrack by Mark Speckman.
