"Future Shock" (a 1972 documentary)


An interesting perspective on society based on the book Future Shock by Alvin Toffler. This documentary came out in 1972 and features Orson Welles as the narrator. Some funny moments here, but also many things to ponder about the "new society" in which we live. One question to ponder: Is this Future Shock or Shock from the Past?
