Episodes

The Hallway
Introducing one of history's most notorious psychological experiments — but with a twist. The study's prisoner and guard participants take a seat in front of the camera to reveal never-before-heard details of an event that has shaped our understanding of human nature and good versus evil for the past 50 years. Together, they track the key events that took place over the six fateful days in 1971.

The Unraveling
What if we told you the Stanford Prison Experiment is not what it seems? The participants reveal new perspectives surrounding what happened in the fateful hallway, putting to question Dr. Zimbardo's long-held claims. With the help of an intrepid French researcher, we learn that the 50-year-old story is riddled with apparent inconsistencies. Meanwhile, the filmmakers expose their own storytelling devices.

A Beautiful Lie
In a pivotal interview, Dr. Zimbardo takes a seat in front of the camera and defends his notorious experiment and its lessons. Meanwhile, an unexpected and exciting reunion takes place that exposes new layers of the story. This isn't a tale about an experiment debunked but rather one about the power of perspective and mythmaking.
