Mad Cow Crisis (1996), the MONICA LEWINSKY affair (1998), the First Gulf War…
Each episode of this documentary series dives into the heart of officially accepted truths — and the lies they conceal, the blind spots hidden behind them. With rigor and intimacy, the series reveals how dominant narratives, political or media imagery, and economic interests can shape our perception of the past.

Through exclusive testimonies, often little-known archives, and sensitive investigation, the collection deciphers the strategies of concealment, manipulation, or omission that have shaped major events — from war to health scandals, from state propaganda to the battles of lobbying groups.

In an era of fake news and growing mistrust toward institutions, The Lies of History offers a sharp look at what we think we know — and at what we may have been led to believe
