"Sirius" by Amardeep Kaleka (2013)


Back to UFO conspiracy documentaries and this one explains the mission of Steven M. Greer much better than what I have seen previously in "Unacknowledged". Say whatever you want about any possibility or a theory but when its presented nicely, with professional editing, camera and proper cellophane, it can at least made you think (or re-think) about what is your position towards the subject. It really all comes down to what are you prepared to accept as possibility instead of accepting the dogma.

Steven M. Greer is a modern day Don Quixote who had invested majority of his life to research about UFO and alien visitors - its a fight with windmills and quite ungrateful task not unlike the one by mythological Sisyphus (eternally doing something futile), but along the way he amassed equal amount of people who ridicule him and those who take him seriously. Greer's explanation is that government constantly suppress knowledge about alien visits (for their own agenda) and purposely use media to anathematise any witness as a loony. So far he is right - anybody who just mentions unexplained lights and fast-moving formations in the sky is exposed as a nutter and majority of people rather keep silent than to become a joke and lose professional standing. In some cases (like Phoenix lights) there are actually thousands of witnesses so its rather infuriating when major of city pokes fun at all of them - just to quickly apologise afterwards and retract his statement (?) - in my personal opinion, this is not a case of some paranoia or conspiracy but a natural human curiosity. What are these fast-moving lights in the sky and why nobody can properly explain their origin, when obviously they are not coming from army or commercial flights? As Greer points, lots of pilots and people employed in the government services were simply told to keep quiet about it or else they might lose their jobs - Greer actually went so far to arrange press conference with large group of retired pilots and officers who all gave formal testimony about what they experienced and how everything was hushed. Just when you would expect government would issue some public statement about it, 9/11 happened so naturally the focus of attention went elsewhere. (The documentary suggest, intentionally)


One of the most fascinating aspects of documentary is story about tiny skeleton found in Chile (so called Atacama skeleton) that obviously and very apparently doesn't look like anything we know coming from human race. Researchers who worked with its DNA are unwilling to state the obvious, so they fiddle diddle with the concrete answers and talk about possibility of some unfortunate birth defect - and the creature lived way after the birth, so where and how did it lived than? It really appears alien so there are only two possibilities: either is a complete fraud and carved from some material (it is not, it has DNA) or its not from this planet. But mention this and you risk being publicly ridiculed in the media.



Greer and his followers believe that we can invite aliens with peaceful meditation so they experiment with the energy and sit under the night sky humming the mantras, but this kind of sound too improbable to me, although it shouldn't actually as perhaps we posses some kind of living, spiritual energy that connects each of us with the universe. Well, its quite fascinating subject and I enjoyed the movie - it made me think - although unfortunately it focuses only on one part of the world so one needs to take in account the possibility that much bigger things (contacts?) already happened elsewhere.
