Dans le film, Adam Curtis avance que depuis les années 1970, les gouvernements, la finance et les utopistes technologiques ont abandonné la complexité du "monde réel" et ont construit un simple "monde factice" qui est géré par les entreprises et maintenu stable par les politiciens.

The film begins with a series of security footages of armed bank robberies (one of the robbers was on a crutch) accompanied by the song Louie, Louie. Moore then uses an Encyclopædia Britannica archive video to compare and view modern-day America with the Roman Empire, by juxtaposing depictions of the fall of the Roman Empire with similar modern-day American issues. The film then depicts home videos of families being evicted from their homes, as well as the "Condo Vultures," a Florida real estate agency whose business flourished with the increasing number of foreclosures.
