Science Friction
“Finally, a documentary about scientists who get misrepresented by the media”
2022•1h 42m•6.0•Released
Documentary
Those TV documentaries you see, and the science experts they feature? Did you know that producers often edit them out of context, and twist their words, to make it seem like they promoted some pop sensationalism instead of the real facts? Science Friction exposes these faux documentaries by name, and gives the scientists a chance to clear the record.
