Overview & Credits

FILM OVERVIEW

An exploration led by Keith Arem, the award-winning talent director of popular video games like Call of Duty and Titanfall, has uncovered a military cover-up of the biggest UFO sighting in North America that occurred on March 13th, 1997. This investigation is based on true events.

The incident, known as the Phoenix Lights, was a mass sighting of UFOs in the US history that took place on the night of March 13th, 1997. Four Arizona men disappeared on the same night in the Estrella Mountain National Park, located south of Phoenix, and their case remains unresolved, marking the longest missing persons case in Arizona history.

Phoenix Incident, a transmedia motion picture, features classified recordings and materials that have never been seen before. It presents conclusive evidence that the four men were victims of an extraterrestrial attack, which occurred due to the US Air Force's direct engagement with unidentified aircraft over the Estrella Mountains. The documentary combines footage, testimonials, and the government's ongoing campaign of disinformation, revealing the truth about "The Phoenix Incident" and leaving viewers questioning everything they thought they knew.

The Phoenix Incident also includes a unique alternative reality experience, comprising dozens of hidden websites, social media interactions, and four hours of secret footage and materials.
