Deepfake technology can create video evidence of just about anything:

Hollywood superstar Margot Robbie in an orgy.

Chinese president Xi Jinping declaring nuclear war.

Basketball legend Michael Jordan winning the World Cup.

The only limit is the imagination.

In a time where fake news and disinformation is becoming harder and harder to identify, it is more essential than ever to understand the dark origins of deepfakes.

Journalist Michael Grothaus goes down the rabbit hole as he interviews the often morally dubious, yet incredibly skilled creators of this content. It's a journey that opens a window into the communities transforming reality.

Challenging, enlightening and terrifying, Trust No One asks the question other people are too scared to: what happens when you can no longer believe your own eyes?
