Unveiling Extremism: How Conspiracy Theories and Online Radicalization Fuel Global Far-Right Movements

A documentary series investigating right-wing extremist groups from within the movements, engaging the individuals in open and honest dialogue about their hatred and distrust of society and democracy.

An increasingly polarized world is nurturing conspiracy theories, distorting reality and uniting the disenfranchised around the world. With the attack on the US Capitol in Washington, the world witnessed the forces that can be mobilized through the internet.

July 22, 2021, marked ten years since Norway's Anders Behring Breivik implemented the deadliest terrorist attack during peacetime in Scandinavian history. According to the Norwegian Police Security Service, it is likely that extremists will try to carry out terrorist attacks in Norway in the coming year.

In this six-part series, Henrik Evertsson and Jørn Norstøm investigate how radicalization takes place in the Nationalist organizations and how the lone wolves find their flock online. Tracking the journey of one hateful statement being posted in a dark corner of the web, to its spread across Norway, Sweden, and the rest of the Nordics, they show why the rise of the far-right movement is a worldwide issue now.
