[music] I remember a discussion that I was part of with my grandmother Alea [music] Shalom, legendary almana of the famous rebell Mike Tress Satal. [music] This conversation took place in the 80s. It's a long time ago. We were all sitting around the table and some of the people there were sharing the story that was depicted at the time in a movie that was depicted at the time in a movie that made waves and the name of the movie was [music] The Wave. It took the world by storm. This film, it claimed to illustrate how easily even decent [music] people can be manipulated into doing unspeakable unspeakable evil [music] because of social pressure. And everybody was talking about this film and they were analyzing the message and is it really this way and is it not and would I withstand it and would I not?
