It may feel as if the present-day political world is spinning out of control, as are the various means of selling political thought. This program analyzes what is behind past and current propaganda, and questions what exactly is “the truth.” Propaganda identifies the predominant means and methods of persuasion that have been employed by those seeking power, often at any cost. The documentary looks back at key epochs of history when propaganda defined nations and kept populations in check. The time-honored tools of propaganda have included novels, poetry and oratory; statuary, paintings and posters; theatre, film and television; architecture, music and Internet technology. 1x60, 1x90 HD VANESSA CARR FOR FRONTLINE FOR CARR VANESSA ROOMPOETLIAR/SHUTTERSTOCK

Sealab On a February day in 1969, off the shore of northern California, a U.S. Navy crane carefully lowered 300 tons of metal into the Pacific Ocean. The massive tubular structure was an audacious feat of engineering—a pressurized underwater habitat, complete with science labs and living quarters for an elite group of divers who hoped to spend days or even months at a stretch, living and working on the ocean floor. The Sealab project would push the limits of ocean exploration the same way NASA was pushing the limits of space exploration. As Americans were becoming entranced with the effort to land a man on the moon, these divers, including one of NASA’s most famous astronauts, were breaking depth barrier records underwater. Sealab tells the little-known story of the daring program that tested the limits of human endurance and revolutionized the way humans explore the ocean. 1x53 HD
