Dozens of movies and documentaries about cults are currently streaming on services like Netflix and Hulu, while the number of podcasts and short videos devoted to the subject may number in the hundreds. What explains this explosion of interest?
Join California magazine’s Editor-in-Chief Pat Joseph in conversation with Poulomi Saha, Ph.D., who teaches the highly in-demand course “Cults in Popular Culture” and is currently working on their next book titled Enthralled, about America’s long obsession with “communities and philosophies that offer total belief and total enthrallment—even and especially as we might claim that we would never ourselves join.”
Check In begins at 6 p.m.
Hour-long interview-style talk begins at 6:30 p.m.
Reception will follow the talk at 7:30 p.m.
Your ticket includes same-day admission to BAMPFA.
