Hypernormalization is a documentary by the British filmmaker Adam Curtis from 2016, which was produced by the BBC.
The documentation shows how governments, financiers and technological utopists have changed the complex "real world" into a more useful and simpler "fake world" for them since the 1970s, which is held by companies and kept stable by politicians. The film was released on October 16, 2016 on the BBC IPlayer and is 166 minutes. He had a budget of € 35,000.
The term Hypren normalization was shaped by the anthropologist Alexei Yaukak. He introduced the word in his book everthing what Forever, Until it was no more: The Last Soviet Generation (2006), which describes paradoxes of the Soviet life in the 1970s and 1980s. He says everyone in the Soviet Union knew that the system failed, but nobody could imagine an alternative to the status quo and politicians and citizens have resigned themselves to maintain the appearance of a functioning society. Over time, this delusion became a self -fulfilling prophecy and the deception was accepted by everyone as real, an effect that Yaukak described as Hypernormalization.
