Mediastan is a 2013 documentary film about the 2010 United States diplomatic cables leak, directed by Johannes Wahlström and produced by Julian Assange, Rebecca O'Brien and Lauren Dark.

Etymology

The suffix -stan (Persian: ـستان‎‎ -stān) is Persian for "place of"[1] or "country"derived from Sanskrit sthan.[2]

Release

Its release was timed[3] to challenge that of The Fifth Estate, a film dramatization about WikiLeaks which Assange has described as a "propaganda attack" against the organization.[4]
