Awareness is the result of a successful documentary.
Creating consciousness and the "eye opening" effect that rise from watching a film is probably the biggest victory of this type of art.
I saw "The Corporation" today.
A few months ago I saw "Sicko".
Both films are shocking, interesting and have revealing stories.
"Sicko" focuses in the American healt service and "The Corporation" talks about the effects of worldwide companies in the lives of humans and animal life, as well as the entire planet.
Michael Moore is the director of the first film and actually appears in the second one.
In it's own particular way he exposes the injustices and lack of consideration in which the insurance corporations deal with it's costumers (yes, the sick and needy) in "Sicko".
"The Corporation" film ends with one of his statements.
He explains the irony of being promoted and paid by big film corporations, when his job is to criticise them!
He wonders that the coop orations probably think that people that see the films in theatres or TV will just not do anything... He on the other hand thinks, it might just have some effect on us and make us somehow act.
I try to have my small very (maybe for some insignificant) own contribution.
And hey... I did wrote this post. Isn't that something?
