There is a documentary about the burglars [0] who revealed COINTELPRO, called 1971 [1]. It's really an awful name for SEO! It was released in 2014 so searches for "1971 2014" might return useful results. Funnily enough, there is also a completely unrelated film called '71. Anyway, 1971 is more about the reveal of the program, so details about the program itself are secondary.
I would love to see a documentary/drama series about UK agent provocateur, Bob Lambert [2].
> To gain credibility as an activist, he formed friendships with other movement members; he also embarked in long-term relationships with women as a means of establishing a cover story. He fathered a child with one of the activists he was spying on.
> In 2013, it was reported that while undercover with London Greenpeace, Lambert had co-authored the 'McLibel leaflet', which resulted in a defamation lawsuit from McDonald's Corporation that took ten years to resolve.
