BREAKING SOCIAL
The social contract has long been accepted as a norm in Western societies. However, those who contribute the most, relative to what they earn, often receive the least. Encompassing three countries – Malta, the US and Chile – as well as gatherings for the world’s elite such as the Davos summit, BREAKING SOCIAL exposes corruption and political assassinations as increasingly common, and a kleptocracy that has comprehensively undermined the notion of political democracy as it caters to the super-rich.
Acclaimed documentary filmmaker Fredrik Gertten (Push, Bikes Vs. Cars, Big Boys Gone Bananas!*) returns with BREAKING SOCIAL an analysis of patterns of kleptocracy and extractivism around the world. The film follows some of these global stories, and through the people fighting these inequalities we see the possibilities of overcoming injustice – reimagining the building blocks of our societies and finding hope along the way.DocumentaryPT1H33M152026-03-14Rutger Bregman
