    A Product of its Time
    This is a quite interesting documentary series, basically due to the topic. However, the highly inconsistent use of expressions, names, and even false use of photo material, as well as only having partly bias 'expertise', and exclusively with Euro American participation, makes it less credible. It seems to be a typical product of its time.
