While I haven't seen this, I'd recommend Adam Curtis' other documentaries. His most recent one, "The Trap: What happened to our dream of freedom" is a thought provoking series that makes one re-examine what freedom really means in relation to ones self and to others. I'd recommend that, and I've also read that its somewhat related with his earlier work, The Power of Nightmares in a sense that when one's perspective of freedom is viewed as an oppression by another.
