The series THE STANFORD PRISON EXPERIMENT: UNLOCKING THE TRUTH, which premiered at this year’s Tribeca Film Festival, is an unprecedented look at one of history’s most infamous psychology studies through the firsthand accounts of the original “guards” and “prisoners,” many of whom are speaking on camera for the very first time. Their stories unravel a new narrative that interrogates the motives of the man in charge, the late Dr. Philip Zimbardo, while exploring larger questions of human nature and the power of perspective.

Through unparalleled access, THE STANFORD PRISON EXPERIMENT: UNLOCKING THE TRUTH embarks on a gripping, ticking-clock journey through the six-day Stanford Prison Experiment with a deluge of reveals, new subjects and a smoking-gun archive. The docuseries weaves together shocking, poignant and sometimes humorous firsthand accounts from the very participants who were at the heart of the experiment. Then, in an unexpected turn, the series brings the participants to a replica film set of the “prison,” where they revisit pivotal moments and attempt to find consensus — and closure — about what really happened over the course of those six days.
