"Agenda is the most powerful expose of the communist, socialist, progressive attempt to take over America produced so far." Ted Baehr, Movieguide

"Best of Festival" at the 2010 San Antonio Independent Christian Film Festival

When Idaho legislator Curtis Bowers wrote a “Letter to the Editor” about the drastic changes in America’s culture, it became the feature story on the evening news, people protested at the capitol, and for weeks the local newspapers were filled with responses. He realized then that he’d hit on something.

Ask almost anyone and you will hear, “Communism is dead! The Berlin wall came down.” But although the word “communism” has fallen out of favor, Marxism continues to have a powerful influence upon our nation, as this new film quickly reveals. Join Bowers for a fascinating look at the people and groups that have successfully targeted America’s morality and freedom in their effort to grind America down.

It's not just another conspiracy theory. It’s a well-documented agenda.

The 93-minute documentary exposes the plan of communists to destroy the moral underpinnings of Western civilization, and shows how successful they've been as Americans have failed to pay much attention over the past several decades.

In fact, according to the film, social changes in the past 50 years have followed a communist checklist for encouraging moral rot and undermining free enterprise in the West: homosexual "rights," extremist environmentalism, government growth, promotion of obscenity and immorality, the increase in availability of abortion, feminism and the Marxist domination of our public school system.

Agenda unflinchingly shows the connections between communist/socialist organizations and prominent politicians present and past. And by the end, it offers a solution and a mission.

Curtis had his own educational curve in learning about the continuing effort to undermine our nation.

He started in 1992 by attending a meeting of the Committees of Correspondence, a communist organization that was in the process of splitting from the Communist Party USA, in order to find out what was being discussed there.

He thought the plans for changing culture that he heard that day were "crazy," especially the idea of using the environmental movement to "take down the entire free enterprise system in America," and that their efforts would never come to pass.

Utilizing his degrees from Colorado Christian University and the University of Colorado, he spent the next several years in business, running three fondue restaurants until he was appointed to fill a state representative's unexpired term in Idaho in 2007. Toward the end of that term in January 2008, he was writing a letter to the editorial page of the Idaho Press Tribune about the impact of communism and socialism on the United States when the memory of that meeting and its emphasis on using the environmental movement came back to him.

"They had a three-part agenda," he wrote. "They would use their manpower, influence and funds to back anything that would destroy our families, businesses and culture."

As he "dug into" the topic, he realized that using a variety of avenues to harm the Western culture was something they had been pursuing as early as the 1930's. "They've been trying to take over our schools, our media, Hollywood and all the institutions of influence. They want to try to influence us to become people who love big government and who want government involved in our lives."

"I just learned how the plan of the Left, the progressive, socialists, communists - whatever, they all work hand in hand - just how comprehensive their plan had been since the 1930's to break down our morality, to make us just rot on the inside as a culture, a country," Curtis says.

Agenda was made as a tool....a great starting place to get people motivated for action.

Behind the Film: Although Curtis produced, directed and wrote the film, Agenda was a family effort. Curtis' wife and several of their 8 children pitched in as crew members. The Bowers also had to rely on God for financial provision. For 22 months, the family worked on the film full time. They used their life savings for the cost of producing the film, but to live on as well.

Editing the film was a much more involved process than the Bowers had realized it would be. Also a painful process, Curtis says. "I had so much great material, but I had to get it to 90 minutes, and it was tough cutting it down. I had 4 1/2 hours of great material from interviews." When the Bowers finished Agenda and ordered the first set of copies, the family had about three weeks' worth of savings left to pay the bills. They were able to meet the deadline to enter Agenda into the 2010 San Antonio Independent Christian Film Festival - and took home the Jubilee (Best of Festival) Award!
