The Invisible Doctrine: The Secret History of Neoliberalism (& How It Came to Control Your Life)

Watch Trailer
2025 · 75 min Documentary
4.5 / 10 · TMDB

George Monbiot and Carys Young investigate how the ideas of Friedrich Hayek and Milton Friedman evolved into a global dogma. Their conversation in a library is just the starting point for a journey through archives, economist interviews, and footage of political upheavals. The film traces the path from Pinochet's dictatorship in Chile to Thatcher's privatizations in Britain and the 21st-century financial crises. It reveals how neoliberalism transcended economics, shaping our understanding of freedom, society, and even personal choice. Through animation and rare documents, the viewer sees how abstract theories became everyday reality, influencing education, healthcare, and the environment.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The directors use editing as a weapon, juxtaposing archival propaganda reels with contemporary interviews to create a haunting echo of history. Their approach crafts a documentary thriller where the primary antagonist is not a person, but an ideology.

Anyone ready for a film that connects political theory to their daily coffee purchase will find their perspective permanently shifted. What lingers after the credits is the urge to question the architecture of everyday life. — MovieFinder Editorial
