Surplus - Terrorized Into Being Consumers

0 - Default Title
Description
Surplus explores the destructive nature of consumer culture. Against a familiar backdrop of cynical world leaders, corporate captains and Microsoft fanatics the film focuses on the controversial anti-globalisation guru John Zerzan, whose call for property damage has inspired many to take to the streets. An intense visual odyssey filmed over three years in eight countries, from the explosive riots in Genova to $7000 sex dolls in the US to George W Bush’s famous "just keep shopping" speech. Stunning editing and cinematography turns the notion that 20% of the world is gobbling up 80% of its resources from pure statistics into an overwhelming emotional experience. Subtitles: English; French; Spanish; Portugese; Italian; Swedish
