This is an amazing documentary, so I wouldn't be surprised to learn it's been posted here already. If it has, it's still worth posting again.

From Wikipedia:

The series consists of three one-hour programmes which explore the concept and definition of freedom, specifically, "how a simplistic model of human beings as self-seeking, almost robotic, creatures led to today's idea of freedom."
