In our podcast we tried to investigate the matter of authenticity/to answer the question what the authenticity is, what does it mean to be authentic. We did it looking at the film Oppenheimer. The main question of the podcast is whether the representation of Oppenheimer in the film is authentic. Our sources are the movie Oppenheimer, books, interviews and documentaries.
The main aspects we looked at were historical truth about Oppenheimer’s life and world events in the time he lived and his internal conflict.
