Here is the PLOT of this movie as far as we could analyze. Keep watching this space for latest updates.

Another hit in the making, soon-to-release Snowden is the movie we’re all eagerly awaiting with just a glimpse of the trailer, and not just for the stellar cast that’s lined up. Oliver Stone’s Snowden follows what truthfully happened that led to the biggest slip-up that our generation has ever seen, if not every generation. By September 16th of this year, the world will experience the rollercoaster behind the big reveal, where the story will be led by Joseph Gordon-Levitt characterizing Edward Snowden.

Derived from the book “The Snowden Files: The Inside Story of the World's Most Wanted Man”, and after gaining facts straight from the “whistle-blower” himself, the film promises to be as close to reality as possible. Said story follows how Edward Snowden progressed from the military to the CIA, and finally, how he revealed to the world of the NSA’s discretion regarding global surveillance programs, while not losing out on his utter brilliance as a human being. It is important to note that the film doesn’t answer the question of morality raised by this incidence, but puts forth the real life happenings, leaving the decision to the audience.
