SMHP: The Man (Lucifer) In The High Castle! Another Fucking 'Documentary'!

This 2023 documentary analyzes Philip K. Dick's 1962 novel The Man in the High Castle and its Amazon Prime adaptation as a framework for predictive programming and cultural influence, proposing that the alternate history of an Axis victory in World War II reflects strategies for real-world societal control. The 45-minute film examines divided territories, resistance movements, and multiverse concepts through discussions with historians, researchers, and cultural analysts, connecting elements like the neutral Rocky Mountain zone and banned films to contemporary geopolitical tensions and media narratives. It reviews production aspects, including Ridley Scott's involvement and filming locations in Vancouver, while interpreting the series' depiction of Nazi and Japanese occupations as commentary on modern surveillance, identity politics, and power structures, ending with reflections on the impact of fiction on public perception.
