Speechless

In 2017, Emmy-winning documentary filmmaker Ric Esther Bienstock set out to investigate campus free speech controversies - and uncovered an ideological war reshaping universities and democracy itself. With secret recordings, raw phone footage, and unprecedented access to professors, administrators and students on the front lines, Speechless is an eight-year investigation into how pressure from the Left inside campuses provoked a fierce counteroffensive from the Right - turning higher education into a political battleground and exposing what’s lost when debate gives way to dogma.
