About Alex Holder

Alex Holder was a British film director.

Alex Holder is a British documentary filmmaker, founder and managing director of AJH Films.

Life and career Before Unprecedented Holder describes himself as a previously "pretty unknown quantity", but he was a producer on the 2016 Tribeca film Keep Quiet. It is a 2016 documentary about an anti-Semitic politician (Csanád Szegedi, a co-founder of the far-right Hungarian political party Jobbik) who finds out he’s Jewish.

His works also include Bad Boy Chiller Crew, a 2021 series about Bad Boy Chiller Crew, an English bassline collective from Bradford. According to Holder, the Trumps didn’t have editorial control over the documentary. in the final months of 2020 and early 2021. The Jan 6 Committee were specifically interested in "raw footage taken on 6th January 2021; raw footage of interviews with President Donald J. Trump, Donald J. Trump, Jr., Ivanka Trump, Eric Trump, Jared Kushner; and Vice President Mike Pence; raw footage pertaining to discussions of election fraud or election integrity surrounding the November 2020 presidential election". Holder captured Ivanka Trump on camera, contradicting herself (and thus lying to documentary cameras or a Senate committee under oath). In December 2020, days after Attorney General William P. Barr's announcement, Ivanka publicly supported Donald Trump's fight to overturn the election results. In her testimony, however, she agreed with Barr's claim that the election was legitimate.

Holder captured a moment when Mike Pence read an email confirming that his letter rejecting Nancy Pelosi's attempt to invoke the 25th Amendment had been sent. While the documentary suggested Pence was reacting to a House resolution urging him to remove Trump, his spokesman disputed this characterization, clarifying that Pence was merely acknowledging his own letter.

Holder testified in a closed-door deposition before the Committee on 23 June 2022.

Holder has been accused of being a British or US spy and got a security detail, appeared on CNN and MSNBC.
