One of the best documentaries of all time. Clearly the people rating this movie as "1 star" are confused and think that it is the highest rating. This movie provokes us all to think about where we as, a planet, are headed. It hits you over the head with the collapse a major, progressive world economy. And then builds you back up by showing how average people pick-up the pieces and try to build something even better than what they had before. If you think there is only one form of democracy or capitalism, then this is a must-see eye-opener.
A great film that helps the viewer understand how grass roots efforts to affect change to further progressive values is needed, and can be rewarded if one works hard.
Very accomplished political documentary with none of the Michael Moore style smarm that I think turns people off of the format. Nicely done and engaging. Our filmmakers wisely keep a low profile and let their subjects do the talking. Must see IMHO.
Great movie on the power of taking over!
