The phrase “Flat Earthers” might bring to mind tinfoil-hat-wearing conspiracy theorists who are seriously out of touch with reality. But “Behind the Curve” introduces us to real Flat Earthers, a small but growing contingent of people who firmly believe in a conspiracy to suppress the truth that the Earth is flat. A vice.com story about the film said it “makes a case for empathy instead of ridicule.”
