"Over the past two years, viral clips, news headlines and TV series such as
Adolescence have ensured much of the public has encountered the “manosphere”
– an online ecosystem that repackages misogyny, anti-feminism and male
grievance as self-improvement and hustle.

Journalist Louis Theroux is further lifting the lid on this dangerous ideology
with his new Netflix documentary, Inside the Manosphere, in which he
showcases the individuals driving this culture.

In his measured and sometimes risky style, Theroux traces not only the rhetoric
of “high-value men”, but also the livestream formats and business models that
sustain this world. The result is both illuminating and unsettling."
