Misha and the Wolves

Everyone feels pressure to be "politically correct". It's nothing new especially for correcting any past wrongs that are immoral. This doc about how a woman who used this climate for "her survival story" shows how easy manipulation is. There is a wake-up call here that's relevant for the current day.

I wouldn't say that's the point of this film however. It chronicles a very "out-there" story in which many were mesmerized by. The path it took was a messy one too yet it, at least in Europe, was a best-selling book and lauded movie. It took the story's writer being successfully sued by the subject of said story to begin questioning it. Too much was taken at face value is obvious as the real story comes to light. Plenty of well-meaning gullible people were taken in with a certain few driven by...yep, greed. It may not be a great survival story but it's an interesting criminal hoax. Striving to always be politically correct is akin to wanting to be fooled.
