Ballinran series highlights humanity’s failures
Canadian producer Ballinran Entertainment has acquired the adaptation rights to Tom Phillips’ bestselling book Humans: A Brief History of How We F**ked It All Up.
The deal was agreed with UK publisher Wildfire, part of the Headline Publishing Group, and Ballinran’s series has the working title Humanity’s Greatest F**k Ups.
The book examines how the worst aspects of humanity, such as narcissism and hive minds, have derailed civilisation.
Featured humans include Lucy, our ancient ancestor who died falling out of a tree, and Aztec leader Montezuma, who welcomed the Spanish conquistadors that would wipe out most of his empire.
