Total Trust

Portrait of how a state uses technology to control its citizens. Follows three families and their trials. Footage of the children, animals, wives, parents - all give an intimate feel to the movie. It is an 1984 movie - goes beyond Orwell's wildest predictions.

Also, contains government footage of its propaganda to convince people to trust it. There is a natural feel to the film. You feel you are with these families - suffering with them. With the lockdowns and surveillance we experienced during the COVID times in the US, we can see how this type of control erodes the basic freedom of movement.
