The Lifespan Of A Fact

The Lifespan Of A Fact

Based on the stirring true story of John d’Agata’s essay, “What Happens There.”

Fresh out of college, Jim Fingal’s job is to fact-check articles for one of the best magazines in the country. His boss has given him a big assignment: to apply his skill to a groundbreaking piece by author John D’Agata. Fingal has one huge problem — D’Agata made up a lot of his article. The two come head to head in a comedic yet gripping battle over facts versus truth.
