DESCRIPTION:
(from National Geographic Channel's press release, May 2016) A backyard chemist invents the world's most infamous club drug. A crime scene photographer changes the way police fight crimes. A civil rights activist hijacks a plane, causing sweeping airport security reforms. The first dark-side hacker revolutionizes computer security. These seemingly disparate stories share a common thread: outsiders finding their voices by rebelling against the status quo. Beginning Sunday, June 5, at 9/8c, National Geographic Channel will take viewers inside these relatively obscure stories with I AM REBEL. Executive produced by Doug Liman ("The Bourne Identity," "Suits," "Covert Affairs") using his signature style of propulsive, action-packed and character-driven storytelling, each episode of I AM REBEL is told entirely through first-person interviews and stylish and suspenseful re-creations that blur the line between feature films and documentaries. Each story reveals the lightning bolts of change that can emerge from the fringes of counterculture, effecting change that reverberates through history.
