The Stanford Prison Experiment: Unlocking the Truth

National Geographic

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.
