Trailer Watch: “Bias” Doc Explores the Impact of Unconscious Bias

"Bias"

A new trailer for “Bias” kicks off with a discussion of implicit, or unconscious, bias. The doc’s director, Robin Hauser, and other characters reflect on many biases that influence our perceptions and judgments.

“I wanted to explore unconscious bias and how it relates to gender and race,” Hauser explains. “Where does it come from? What does it impact? And is there anything we can do to change it?”

The spot touches on how unconscious bias can lead to toxic workplaces, sexual harassment, pay inequality, and racial profiling.

“I have this sense that if I fail, it will be like, ‘Well, you see: this is why we don’t invest in women,'” one of the characters explains.

Hauser most recently directed “CODE: Debugging the Gender Gap,” a 2015 doc examining the lack of diversity and gender equality in computing science.

“Bias” will be available on digital and on-demand April 14.
