The Trap: What Happened to Our Dreams of Freedom? Part 1

submitted by Farhad2000

1 decade 7 years 9 months 1 week ago

'The Trap - What Happened To Our Dream Of Freedom?' is a new documentary by the BAFTA-winning producer Adam Curtis. It looks at how models of human behaviour shaped by Cold War logic have come to control our lives. The first episode in the three-part series was shown on BBC TV here in the UK last Sunday. If you're curious about the intersection of psychology and politics, and how we got where we are today, then you must see this documentary.
