being consumers" Adbusters Magazine

SURPLUS: TERRORIZED INTO BEING

SURPLUS by Swedish filmmaker Erik Gandini.
screens Monday 23rd May 8.30 pm, Red Parrot, Dorset St organised by the SWP.

SURPLUS is an intense visual odyssey filmed over three years in
eight different countries. From the explosive riot days in Genoa 2001 to $7000
sex dolls in the US, SURPLUS explores the destructive nature of consumer culture. Stunning editing and breathtaking cinematography turns the notion that 20% of the world is gobbling up 80% of its resources from pure statistics into an overwhelming emotional experience.
