Historia
In 'Das Experiment', 20 volunteers participate in an elaborate psychological study conducted by the university. Among them is a journalist who has infiltrated the group to expose what he suspects is a cover-up. The participants are divided into guards and prisoners, unaware that they will be living out their roles for two weeks. Initially treating it as a game, tensions rise as the guards begin to abuse their power, humiliating and torturing the prisoners. The situation spirals out of control when one guard rapes a prisoner, leading to further escalation in aggression. The line between experiment and reality blurs as both guards and prisoners become immersed in their roles.
Resumen
'Das Experiment' is a 2001 German film directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel, based on the novel 'The Experiment' by Mario Giordano.

The movie delves into themes of power dynamics, manipulation, and the dangers of dehumanization when individuals are placed in authoritative roles. It is a gripping thriller that raises questions about morality, free will, and the boundaries of acceptable behavior.
