The Stanford Prison Experiment: Unlocking the Truth

International Premiere

The stanford prison experiment: unlocking the truth, documentary.

A groundbreaking look at the infamous Stanford Prison Experiment, through the first-hand accounts of the original prisoners and guards. Their stories unravel a new narrative that interrogates the motives of the man pulling the strings, Dr. Philip Zimbardo, while exploring larger questions of human nature and the power of perspective. Utilizing Rashomon -style reenactments and an Act of Killing- inspired reunion component, the project brings the layers of storytelling to unexpected levels.

After the Screening: A conversation with Director and EP Juliette Eisner, EP Alex Braverman, Supervising Editor Mohamed El Monasterly, and participants Doug Korpi, Dave Eshleman, and Jerry Shue.
