Another excellent Metanoia Films documentary, Human Resources explores bahaviourism and how techniques for conditioning humans have been developed and employed as a means of mass social management.

I kept hearing this narrators' very wonderful, mood-setting voice in some of my most favourite documentaries (The Power Principle, The Corporation, many more) and decided to look her up. It turns out Mikela Jay is a fellow Torontonian and one smart cookie - not only does she lend her velvet voice to the films she works on but tends to play an active role in their production. Perhaps it's the genuine passion for the material she covers which makes her work so memorable. Here's hoping there will be plenty more in the future.
