Frequently asked questions

What is Surviving Progress about? Toggle content

Surviving Progress explores the notion that progress itself may be the downfall of humanity, rather than its salvation. Following Ronald Wright's bestseller "A Short History of Progress", this documentary examines how past civilizations were destroyed by "progress traps" - alluring technologies and belief systems that served immediate needs but ultimately proved ruinous. With insights from notable thinkers and activists, the film challenges viewers to redefine progress and prove that making apes smarter isn't an evolutionary dead-end. Can our globally-entwined civilization escape the final, catastrophic progress trap, or will the pressure on the world's resources accelerate the march towards collapse?
