Hi all!

Since the Weeeeekend is coming I wanted to share my favourite documentaries and ask you to share your top documentaries you think everybody should enjoy ;-)

The first one is about Corporations and how they work etc. I found it very interesting and it helped me to understand as well the Microstock dilemma we have as Producers.
One of the most striking statements of the Movie is for me that Companies have all the rights and protections to act as "Person" (legal persons) but finally no one can be actually held "personally" responsible. A mechanism which allows many companies to act totally ignorant and the reason why in my private life I take care to point at those personal responsibilities:

The Corporation


The second one is from a totally different game. It deals with DMT, a psychedelic molecule found in the Brain which is suspected to be the "Bridge" to a possible "Afterlife" and responsible for many "mystic" experiences. Very controversial, and therefore interesting, especially for those of us who have witnessed the extraordinary experience of psychedelic substances:

Have fun :-)  8)

I watch this one last night - worth the watch if you're interested in food
Jiro Dreams of Sushi

This one is also a nice one (again about food) but about industry and production and has lots of similarities to the microstock industry
Food, Inc

For all you Space Cowboys (and Girls) out there, here is one that a friend sent last week.  A lot of pseudo science and corn field designs, and other superstitions.  After 30 minutes I had to quite watching.  The Doc is well made so if it turns you on, have a click:

Argentina's Financial Collapse -- Documentary -- FULL MOVIE


Argentina's Financial Collapse -- Documentary -- FULL MOVIE


Quote
After many years of apathy in the country, the insurrection exploded. The spontaneous revolt of faceless people meant saucepans were being banged in every neighborhood, all the way to the citys vital centers.
What happened to Argentina? How was it possible that in so rich a country so many people were hungry? The country had been ransacked by a new form of aggression, committed in time of peace and in a democracy. A daily and silent violence that caused greater social disruption, more emigration and death than the terrorism of the dictatorship and the Falkland Islands war.
Ever since independence, almost 200 years ago, Argentinas foreign debt has been a source of impoverishment and corruption and the biggest scandals. Since the first loan negotiated by Rivadavia in 1824 with the British Bank Baring Brothers, the debt was used to enrich Argentinean financiers, to control the finances and empty the country of its wealth.
This foreign debt always went hand in hand with big business, and with the complicity of nearly every government, from Miter and Quintana to Menem and De la Rua. The policy of indebtedness gave rise in Argentina to generations of technocrats and bureaucrats, who favored banks and international corporations over their own country. Educated at Harvard, Chicago, Oxford or Buenos Aires, their portraits hang in the official galleries.
