Putting too much 'message' in a documentary can be a dangerous thing, but after watching this I've learned that the opposite may be even worse.

Given that the phrase 'post-truth' is part of the title, I expected this phenomenon to at least be addressed at some level in this doc. Unfortunately, it is not - it isn't even mentioned once. Instead, we are treated to a fairly disjointed collection of heads talking about some aspects of the Bellingcat investigative platform and some of their investigations without ever getting the full picture. There are some interesting snippets of information, but no apparent point or conclusion. In the end, this feels more like a project a film student might have shot for a local TV station; mildly diverting but not particularly insightful.

If you'd like to learn more about 'truth' and information in the modern media landscape, 'The Social Dilemma' (2020) has much more to say.
