Synopsis
For several days in 1967, students at a Palo Alto high school followed orders without question as part of an experiment led by teacher Ron Jones.
Synopsis
Ron Jones, a teacher at a Palo Alto high school, faced a challenging question from his students in 1967: "How could people allow the Holocaust to happen?" Instead of providing an answer, he initiated an experiment that required students to follow orders without question and report on dissent. The results of this experiment raised significant concerns about obedience and morality. Sixty years later, Jones reunites with former students to reflect on the experiment's implications and the potential for individuals to become complicit in wrongdoing.
