A Drama documentary. The Insane Experiment tells its disturbing story through a combination of well-produced TV drama and profound documentary. A journalist gains access to a previously unknown archive from a Danish hospital. In the 1960s, a well-known senior doctor conducted human experiments on unsuspecting patients with the consciousnessexpanding drug LSD in the hospital’s basement. The journalist reviews the newly found material, with a view to overturning a judicial decision, where the doctors were previously acquitted. Perhaps the archive can give the patients long-awaited justice. The doctors experimented with LSD on 400 patients, over a period of 14 years, despite the fact that the experiments went seriously wrong from the start, with attempted suicides, suicides and even murder. Why didn’t the doctors stop the experiments when things started to go wrong? The drama section of the series tries to come up with answers, by psychologically interpreting the doctors’ group dynamic interplay. The work of the journalist, combined with the psychological investigation of the drama, creates a unique way to illuminate layers of the narrative as a documentary or a drama, each of which has difficulty in succeeding alone.
