Modern humans - Episode 11

In the eleventh episode of the series Contemporary Humans, Yazan explains his philosophy about deception, and how it has developed as one of the most important methods of adapting to the environment and society, like “animals that feign death in order to hide from their prey and protect themselves from being caught.” However, with the development of human civilization, deception has become a means of achieving desires. Only, with time, it became a human skill that we practice like a musical instrument, so we see Karim’s attempts to raise his grades by tricking and talking to doctors. Meanwhile, Yazan explains the methods of deception that children use with their families through Fahd and his attempt to deceive his family in order to obtain a certain amount of money in order to participate in an electronic game competition.
