Logline:

Beth refuses to accept the death of her 10-year-old son in a school shooting because she follows an alternative media personality who says the shooting is a hoax.

Director’s Statement:

My inspiration for Trinity Wars is the compelling documentary about Alex Jones and InfoWars, The Truth vs Alex Jones. Alex Jones falsely claimed that the Sandy Hook school shooting was a hoax. He told his his listeners that the hoax was perpetrated by satanic global elites who were trying to take away their God-given right to firearms. An interview subject in the film who followed Alex Jones and believed the shooting was a hoax says to camera that if it were not a hoax, he would have to admit that he needs to go to a mental asylum. To witness this subject's cognitive dissonance on screen is fascinating. Trinity Wars explores a mother's conflict when her son is shot in a school shooting but she refuses to believe it because she follows an alternative media personality who calls the shooting a hoax. My question is how far would a mother go to hold onto what she believes in even when her own son's life is at stake?
