The Polish peers are often called generation of PRL. This documentary story about the generation of X living in the US is an opportunity for comparison. The authors of the cycle are trying to define their distinctive features.
In each episode, viewers watch the interviews with representatives of the generation X, among them – Courtney Love, Sarah Palin, Kevin Smith and Julian Assange.
in the first episode are reminded of the political circumstances in which they grew up representatives of the generation X. in 1968, when the oldest “Xs” were in the second grade, every week in Vietnam were dying on average three hundred Americans. Such images were part of their lives.
The reports from the front were commonplace adolescent then “X’s”, as well as concerns about Watergate and political crisis. It is generation X witnessed the resignation of US President Richard Nixon, from the position as Superintendent.
In July 1974, the first time in over a hundred years, the US Senate committee voted on the president’s impeachment proceedings. And they have learned – how to talk in the movie – do not trust the government. To this came the chaos in family life – in 1975, America established a new record – more than a million divorces. While the world was not optimistic and did not give him to look through rose-colored glasses.
Subsequent episodes will present the cycle of fear associated with the generation X during their youth, or life in the times of the Cold War, the period of tense relations between the United States and the Soviet Union.
There will also be about the achievements of developing revolutionary technology to be able to use, as well as ground-breaking events from the time of his youth generation X, which led to changes in social, economic and political, and even in thinking societies.
