This isn't really appropriate for Neuroscience and Pharmacology discussion as posted. At a minimum you need to include a few sentences on why you think this is interesting to kick off the discussion, and as this is a science focused forum the discussion should center on the scientific merits/problems of the documentary.

Nothing like movies produced by CCHR, which is a scientology front group

These guys don't exactly have a very level-headed view on anything at all.

The organization holds that mental illness is not a medical disease, and that the use of psychiatric medication is a destructive and fraudulent practice. CCHR follows the Scientology doctrine that psychiatrists ('psychs') are the primary cause of evil in society: "the psychiatrist and his front groups operate straight out of the terrorist textbooks. The Mafia looks like a convention of Sunday school teachers compared to these terrorist groups." The psychiatrist, Hubbard went on, "kidnaps, tortures and murders without any slightest police interference or action by western security forces." Later, Hubbard wrote that, in society, "there’s only one remedy for crime — get rid of the psychs! They are causing it!"

CCHR also blames psychiatry and psychiatrists for school shootings, terrorist attacks, the crimes of Nazi Germany (including the Holocaust), the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, and the Jonestown massacre
