В ходе научного эксперимента 12 обыкновенных людей добровольно становятся на две недели «заключенными» тюрьмы, в то время как 8 таких же добровольцев становятся надзирателями. Задача первых — соблюдать правила тюремного режима; задача вторых — поддерживать порядок. Но человеческая природа берет свое, и эксперимент выходит из-под контроля: под бесстрастными взглядами ученых надзиратели упиваются властью, унижая заключенных, и в тюрьме назревает бунт…
"Das Experiment," a gripping 2001 film produced by Seven Pictures and Typhoon, delves into the dark recesses of human nature through a chilling psychological experiment. Set in Germany, the movie is inspired by the real-life Stanford prison experiment and follows a group of ordinary citizens who volunteer to participate in a simulated prison environment for a monetary reward. The participants are randomly assigned roles as either guards or prisoners, and what begins as a seemingly harmless social study quickly spirals into a harrowing display of power dynamics and brutality. Director Oliver Hirschbiegel masterfully captures the escalating tension and moral decay, making "Das Experiment" a haunting exploration of authority and obedience. The film's protagonist, Tarek Fahd, portrayed by Moritz Bleibtreu, is a taxi driver who takes on the role of a prisoner. His journey from a confident individual to a man pushed to the brink of sanity is both compelling and disturbing. Opposite him, the character of Berus, played by Justus von Dohnányi, embodies the corrupting influence of absolute power as he transforms from a mild-mannered guard into a sadistic tyrant. The dynamic between these two characters serves as the emotional core of the film, highlighting the thin line between civilization and barbarity. The intense performances by the cast, combined with the claustrophobic setting, create an atmosphere of relentless tension that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats. "Das Experiment" also stands out for its unflinching portrayal of the bystander effect and the ease with which individuals can be swayed by groupthink. As the experiment progresses, the other participants, both guards and prisoners, become complicit in the escalating violence, illustrating how quickly societal norms can break down under the right conditions. The film raises poignant questions about the nature of evil and whether it is inherent in humanity or a product of specific circumstances. This theme is particularly resonant in the context of the film's setting in post-World War II Germany, adding a layer of historical reflection to the narrative. In conclusion, "Das Experiment" is a powerful cinematic achievement that transcends its genre to offer a profound commentary on human behavior. Its relevance extends beyond the confines of the screen, prompting viewers to reflect on their own potential for cruelty and compassion. The film's success lies not only in its ability to entertain but also in its capacity to provoke thought and discussion about the ethical boundaries of scientific research and the fragility of moral integrity. "Das Experiment" remains a testament to the enduring impact of psychological thrillers and a stark reminder of the dangers lurking within the human psyche.
