This is another brilliant Adam Curtis documentary originally
produced for the BBC. It talks about the modern political
realities, where the policies came from and the massive failures
of those ideals and how they have ended up exactly where they
did not want to be. Episode One starts in the Cold War and
shows the seeds that were sown to produce the modern political reality.
Episode Two focuses on the 1990's and how the politicians
decided to apply the model of a free market economy to the rest
of society and consequences of these actions being felt all over
the world in western democracy. In the final episode we discuss
the alternative idea to freedom that currently exists and traps
the western societies in which we live.
