The Writer with No Hands

A university professor, Matthew Alford, suspects the CIA killed a Hollywood screenwriter to protect a government secret. Alford believes it was an assassination disguised as a car accident. When Alford receives a phone call warning him to leave the case alone, he heads to Hollywood to conduct his own investigation.

With unprecedented access to key witnesses and the deceased's family, he builds a murder case and thinks he has uncovered the real reason the screenwriter found himself in deep water.

The film begins by posing the question - Why would the CIA murder a Hollywood writer? But it is the bigger questions they unearth about the entertainment industry that the audience will be unable to forget.
