The Corporation

It was a month ago when I sat in front of my TV to fill my head with some crap; I very seldom do it, don't worry! It turned out to be very fruitful what I did. Although I was in time to watch less than half of it, I concluded that this documentary is a "must have" and "must watch several times" piece of inspiration. The Corporation, has a web site that I visited a couple of times after watching it on TV (www.thecorporation.com) trying to get info on how I can have it on a DVD or whatever. Then the time went by, I landed back to my daily life, being occupied with everything else than a whole world around me that is being continuously destroyed, fooled and used for the sake of money; exactly as it is depicted in "The corporation"...
Mass media have developed a great relationship with crap the last years and newspapers couldn't be different. So, the 3 DVD's that a sunday newspaper offer are moved directly to the garbage bin. It happens sometimes though that nice things included. I was lucky to find "The corporation" in one newspaper. In fact, I was "wwwooooooooow...f**k, I stopped looking for it, and it managed to find me!"
Put it on the DVD player, take a comfortable seat (144 minutes), empty your mind from nothingness and REALIZE we are nothing more than PUPPETS, MANNEQUINS, helpless antelopes in the teeth of cruel, rabid hyeanas that tear apart our already violated being/existence.
BUT, the film finishes with a breeze of hope; hope sourced in the souls of indignated people; hope visualized through actions that have already managed to bring changes, even slight; actions undertaken by daily people; sometimes even alone...yes alone.
Reading "Banners & Draggons" an incredibly creative book made by Amnesty International and given to me by a group of wonderful friends of AI, Greek Branch, "If you think you are too small to be effective then you have never been in bed with a mosquito"...
Find the film, watch it, watch it again, reflect on it but keep in mind that there is a fear of getting sick of yourself; well it might then be a shock strong enough to lead to action.

Well well done to Mark Acbar, Jennifer Abbott and Joel Bakan for creating this masterpiece.
