HyperNormalisation
The documentary HyperNormalisation, made by british filmmaker Adam Curtis is a stunning
documentary comprised of found footage. It tells the incredible tale of how we arrived at such a
tumultuous era, where the government is powerless and aimless. Horrible news stories and
occurrences keep straying further and further from the norm. This film doesn’t try to interpret or explain
it’s clippings, but rather why we are unable to. It covers what is happening all over the world, not only
what’s big in the public’s eye, but how society has shaped and distanced itself to what is going on. It
highlights the contrast of the reality we live in and the reality we have created and shaped to fit our
demands. It covers the past four decades and how our current crises have evolved into what they are
now.
