The movie presents an insightful summary of Kissinger's reign from 1969 to 1974. My curiosity however really lay on understanding the man. Why did the superbrain chose aggression? The movie helped cursorily. I sensed that Kissinger was caught up in a game of power, and that he played by the old rules of the turn of the century leaders he studied.

The film documents a Colrain, MA. couple's principled refusal to pay federal income "war" tax, the support community that formed in response to the confiscation of their home by the IRS, and the conflict with the young couple with newborn who bought the home at a government auction. In the end I was not convinced that withholding taxes was a sustainable form of protest, but it was wonderful to see a balanced story of real people peacefully defending their convictions.
