Our world is strange, and often fake and corrupt, but how did we get here?

We live in a time of great uncertainty and confusion. Events keep happening that seem inexplicable and out of control. Donald Trump, Brexit, the War in Syria, the endless migrant crisis, and random bomb attacks. And those who are supposed to be in power are paralysed - they have no idea what to do.

This film is the epic story of how we got to this strange place. It explains not only why these chaotic events are happening, but also why we, and our politicians, cannot understand them.

It shows that what has happened is that all of us in the West - not just the politicians and the journalists and the experts, but we ourselves - have retreated into a simplified, and often completely fake version of the world. But because it is all around us, we accept it as normal.

"A Little Princess" by Frances Hodgson Burnett

Picture yourself in a dark room. Pitch black. No light at all. What can you do? Try to find the exit, of course. Or at least - light. So, i guess, you start moving forward. Slowly. Carefully. Step by step. Hands outstretched. There must be a wall somewhere. And in it a door or a light switch. Indeed. After what seems like an eternity you can feel it. The wall. A door. A door handle. Hope the door is not locked. And yes. It opens and - the dark room becomes light. The light floods the room. Not the other way around. That's the message of these days of december. No matter how dark it is sometimes, the light will conquer the darkness. We can trust this message. Just like the laws of physics.

I was just rewatching the I Can See You music video and thinking about the (OG) Taylor Lautner doing his own stunts.
