Torrent description
This three-part documentary looks in-depth at the beginnings of the Islamic fundamentalist and American Neoconservative movements, and how they affect our lives today.
The premise is how politicians, instead of promising us dreams like they used to, now promise to protect us from nightmarish enemies, such as international terrorism. The documentary goes on to explain how much of this is a fantasy; Leo Strauss, who features in the film, once said that a liberal society needed simple, powerful myths to keep itself together. These myths are explored in this film.
