On June 27, 2025, the American television channel PBS will air the documentary film "Hannah Arendt: Facing Tyranny", dedicated to the life and thought of the German-American philosopher Hannah Arendt. The production will examine her experience of Nazism in Germany, her flight to the USA, as well as her sharp analyses of totalitarianism, presented through the prism of the current political time, including the eras of McCarthy and the Vietnam War.
The film will use archival video, interviews and comments from experts, striving to bring Arendt's thought into the contemporary discourse. The premiere date - June 27 - coincides with political moments from election campaigns in the USA, which gives additional relevance to the themes of freedom and civic responsibility.
