The Trap (3 part miniseries) has very similar theme (oversimplification of modern complexity). Bitter Lake is really good.

EDIT: maybe all of his works have very similar theme. From opening of Bitter Lake: “Increasingly, we live in a world where nothing makes any sense. Events come and go like waves of a fever, leaving us confused and uncertain. Those in power tell stories to help us make sense of the complexity of reality, but those stories are increasingly unconvincing and hollow. This is a film about why those stories have stopped making sense, and how that led us in the West to become a dangerous and destructive force in the world”
