Synopsis
A look back at 1967's notorious Third Wave project. Originally designed by Cubberly High teacher Ron Jones to teach his Palo Alto pupils about the roots of fascism, the experiment proved to be more successful than anyone could have anticipated. In particular, five days of the movement are explored in which the students started out as a cooperative until informers were assigned by Jones. As members are recruited and trials were held, even non-informants quickly turned on other members in their quest to ace the assignment.
