This film, shot by 100 amateur camera operators, tells the story of the enormous street protests in Seattle, Washington in November 1999, against the World Trade Organization summit being held there. Vowing to oppose, among other faults, the WTO's power to arbitrally overrule nations' environmental, social and labour policies in favour of unbridled corporate greed, protestors from all around came out in force to make their views known and stop the summit.

This film, shot by 100 amateur camera operators, tells the story of the enormous street protests in Seattle, Washington in November 1999, against the World Trade Organization summit being held there. Vowing to oppose, among other faults, the WTO's power to arbitrally overrule nations' environmental, social and labour policies in favour of unbridled corporate greed, protestors from all around came out in force to make their views known and stop the summit. Against them is a brutal police force and a hostile media as well as the stain of a minority of destructively overzealous comrades. Against all odds, the protesters bravely faced fierce opposition to take back the rightful democratic power that the political and corporate elite of the world is determined to deny the little people.

| User ReviewTim Dthis documentary moved me so much, watched it 3 times in one day.everyone should check it out. |
| User ReviewAaron GClear evidence that we live in a militaristic police state. |
| User ReviewPaul Dedited from footage shot by people on the scene at the time, this contains the immediacy of verite with the reflection of interviews of people involved. watch this with Haskell Wexler's "Medium Cool" and really appreciate how little things have changed... |
| User ReviewJayden CThe new Boston Tea Party! An inspring on the ground look at the activists who shut down the WTO. |
| User ReviewKinshun WVery emotionally charged... the only doc-y film that litreally made me cry halfway through... if there is a similar style doc-y about 6/4 I would definitely cry through the whole film... The only downside is that it sort of blow a few things out of proportion... but other than that it's one of the best doc-y I have seen in years... |
| User ReviewPrivate UThis movie shows how we Americans have lost some of our constitutional freedoms and we are living in a 'military' country |
| User ReviewRyan WA suprising documentary about the WTO protests in Seattle. Protestors rights were taken away. They were beaten and gased. It amazed me that this was allowed to happen in the U.S. ! |
| User ReviewLee KThis is a really touching documentary about the 1999 WTO protests in Seattle--perhaps the only U.S.A. protest of the last decade or so that will live in infamy. The Seattle police are depicted as absolutely brutal and out of control--and Thomas L. Friedman should stick that in his pipe and smoke it! The documentary does suffer from severe one-sided POV and because the footage was shot by 100 or so activists on the ground, there is a lot of variety--so this story of the actual protest comes across as somewhat jumbled and the video quality gets a little shoddy. Susan Sarandon is one of two narrators. |
| User ReviewShota KI would've called this film "failure to disperse", I just love that legal phrase :) Too protest-centered, expected something more informative on resistance and social movements, but still an interesting documentary (with definitely good editing). |
| User ReviewFreddy FSelf congratulatory clap-trap that actually infuriated me a wee tad (particularly in the reference to Vietnam and that iconic shot Hearts and Minds). Dealt with issues only superficially as opposed to engaging them. Thoroughly inferior to, for example, The Corporation or similar themed films. |
