Welfare. When Frederick Wisemen released his documentary called Primate last year it caused a lot of controversy in the science world. Without commentary, it showed how animals were treated in labs (i.e., cruelly). Scientists were outraged that their research should be called into question in such an irresponsible way and Harvard philosophy professor Robert Nozick said, "What about the animals?" Wiseman said the film was meant to show what could happen to human subjects in a world of unfettered scientific research. (And CIA-sponsored investigations into hallucenogenic drugs seems to confirm those fears). Here again, there is no commentary, and heavy exchanges between clients and welfare workers are for your own Interpretation. Ch. 2; 9 p.m.; 2 hours, 50 min. Black and white.
