Adam Curtis heeft ‘a new series of films’ gemaakt. Morgen is de eerste aflevering te zien van ‘Trap: what happened to our dreams of freedom?’
A series of films by BAFTA-winning producer Adam Curtis that tells the story of the rise of today’s narrow idea of freedom. It will show how a simplistic model of human beings as self-seeking, almost robotic, creatures led to today’s idea of freedom. This model was derived from ideas and techniques developed by nuclear strategists during the Cold War. It was then taken up by genetic biologists, anthropologists, radical psychiatrists and free market economists, until it became a new system of invisible control. With some strong language.
Deze derde serie belooft meer op de weg die Curtis al eerder heeft ingeslagen: het blijven slopen van het idee van de autonoom handelende individuele mens. Die rationeel zou handelen en niet op allerlei manieren wordt beinvloed. Die idée fixe die u vast ook nog heeft over uw eigen handelen.
