The Looming Tower (2018)

This procedural thriller exposes how bureaucratic tribalism between the FBI and CIA paralysed vital intelligence sharing before September 11. Through tense liaison meetings and diplomatic wrangling in Nairobi and Riyadh, the production captures the maddening frictions of classified territoriality. Lawrence Wright's source material translates into an unsparing study of administrative inertia, where careerist pride and rigid jurisdictional barriers continually obstruct collective security.
