The future of democracy is being written on campus.
Watch the Teaser“This film is about the most consequential true crime story in modern American history. Not a murder. Not a bank theft. But the hijacking of a generation’s capacity to think freely, reason clearly, and love the civilization that made their freedom possible.”— Daniella Kahane, Director & Producer

Poisoned Ivies investigates how one of America's most revered campuses has transformed from an institution dedicated to teaching students how to think — into an ideological battleground imposing what to think.
Through a deep-dive case study of Columbia University, the film traces four decades of quiet infiltration: foreign money, faculty capture, DEI bureaucracy, and the administrative cowardice that allowed it all to take root — until the institution could no longer hide what it had become.
