Filmmaker Paul Kimball, nephew of famed ufologist Stanton Friedman, walks through his UFO documentary career, from his intimate portrait of his uncle to films on Majestic 12, the Aztec crash, and the top 10 best UFO cases. He bluntly labels MJ-12 and Aztec as hoaxes, even though he made films about both, and explains why a documentary maker's job differs from a researcher's personal opinion. Along the way he reveals a previously unknown RB-47 encounter during the Cuban Missile Crisis, told to him off-camera by an Air Force officer who said crews were ordered never to speak of such incidents.
