Some documentary films entertain, while others educate and still others provide insight into unknown paradigms.
And then, some documentary films are simply important. “Forecast: The Secret Crisis of Weather Manipulation,” is a documentary that took producer Paula Randol-Smith 27 years to produce, reveals an existential threat to the very survival of humanity that has been taking place right under our noses for decades: the manipulation of the weather.
At first blush, the very claim sounds like the ravings of a conspiracy theorist, but Randol-Smith has been collecting the receipts since the 1990s, and she makes an irrefutable case that will chill audiences to the bone. And that’s why Forecast the film is the winner of Roy W. Dean Grant for Fall 2023 offered by From the Heart Productions.
“The most gratifying part of winning this grant is the credibility it lends to a project that describes a crisis so bizarre that even after seeing the evidence, it’s still difficult to believe that something like weaponized weather manipulation could be happening in 2024,” said Randol-Smith. “But it is happening, and we deeply appreciate From the Heart Productions for helping us get that much closer to the finish line.”
About HAARP
Beginning with a US military program called the High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP). Between 1990 and 2014, HAARP was a jointly managed program of the United States Air Force (USAF) and United States Navy. Its stated goal was to “research the physical and electrical properties of the Earth’s ionosphere, which can affect our military and civilian communication and navigation systems.”
As Randol-Smith documents, it was the beginning of the weaponization of our weather through the use of machines called Ionospheric Heaters, which can actually create and/or dissipate clouds.
Today, the program is housed at The University of Alaska Fairbanks, and the field of science it birthed has grown into a monster that threatens all life on Earth. Forecast reveals the history of the program and how it has morphed into a global threat with China, Russia and other bad actors actively using Ionospheric Heaters to such an extent that it is one of the primary causes of our current climate crisis.
Packed with information, interviews with luminaries, warnings from experts and careful documentation of each historical milestone, Forecast is required viewing for anyone concerned for future generations.
