About the film

An exploration of the ethical consequences of turning real-life trauma into prime-time spectacle.

What it’s about

In the mid-2000s, Dateline NBC's To Catch a Predator drew millions of weekly viewers. Men planning to meet minors for sex were instead confronted by host Chris Hansen on hidden camera before police moved in.

What hooks you

Who it’s for

It is worth a look for anyone who is curious about how reality television turned police work into entertainment and shaped public perceptions of crime. It will also interest those who follow true-crime stories and the ethics of hidden-camera reporting.
