In

August 1951, inhabitants of the picturesque French village of
Pont-Saint-Esprit were suddenly tormented by terrifying hallucinations.
People imagined lions and tigers were coming to eat them. A man jumped
out of a window, thinking he was a dragonfly. At least seven people
died, dozens were taken to the local asylum in straitjackets and
hundreds were affected.
Almost immediately, wild theories started
circulating to explain this mysterious case of mass insanity. There were
claims of poisoned flour, contaminated water and even witchcraft. But
the truth was stranger than many of the theories: the CIA had spiked the
local food with LSD as part of a mind control experiment at the height
of the Cold War.
In this documentary, we reveal how for decades, the
CIA has been using non-consenting people as guinea pigs in thousands of
different experiments.
