Production Support for the Documentary Live Not By Lies

We provided production support for the American documentary Live Not By Lies, exploring the stories of Christian dissidents under Soviet totalitarian rule.

Rod Dreher, New York Times bestselling author of Live Not By Lies, visited the Czech Republic to interview former Czechoslovakian dissidents, including Kamila Bendová, Alexander Vondra, Luděk Bednář and Jiří Gruntorád.

Production Support for Documentary Live Not By Lies

For years, émigrés from the former Soviet bloc have been telling Rod Dreher they see telltale signs of "soft" totalitarianism cropping up in America--something more Brave New World than Nineteen Eighty-Four. Identity politics are beginning to encroach on every aspect of life. Civil liberties are increasingly seen as a threat to "safety". Progressives marginalize conservative, traditional Christians, and other dissenters. Technology and consumerism hasten the possibility of a corporate surveillance state. And the pandemic, having put millions out of work, leaves our country especially vulnerable to demagogic manipulation.

In Live Not By Lies, Dreher amplifies the alarm sounded by the brave men and women who fought totalitarianism. He explains how the totalitarianism facing us today is based less on overt violence and more on psychological manipulation. He tells the stories of modern-day dissidents--clergy, laity, martyrs, and confessors from the Soviet Union and the captive nations of Europe--who offer practical advice for how to identify and resist totalitarianism in our time.
