Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context WCDVD0063 Description An account of the resource THE YES MEN FIX THE WORLD is a screwball true story that follows two daring and imaginative political activists - Andy Bichlbaum and Mike Bonanno - as they infiltrate the world of big business and pull off outrageous pranks that highlight how corporate greed is destroying the planet. One day Andy, purporting to be a Dow Chemical spokesperson, gets on the biggest TV news program in the world (BBC World News) and announces that Dow will finally clean up the site of the largest industrial accident in history, the Bhopal catastrophe. The result: as people worldwide celebrate, Dow's stock value loses two billion dollars.<br /><br />People want Dow to do the right thing, but the market decides that it can't. The reality hits Andy and Mike like a ton of bricks: we have created a market system that makes doing the right thing impossible, and the people who appear to be leading are actually following its pathological dictates. At conference after conference, the Yes Men try to wake up their corporate audiences to this frightening prospect, in the process taking on some of the world's biggest corporations. On their journey, the Yes Men delve deep into the question of why we have given the market more power than any other institution to determine our direction as a society. As they appear on the BBC before 300 million viewers, or before 1000 New Orleans contractors alongside Mayor Ray Nagin, the layers of lies are peeled back to reveal the raw heart of truth - a truth that brings with it hope.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.bullfrogfilms.com/catalog/yes.html">/blurb lovingly sourced from here\</a> Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Andy Bichlbaum, Mike Bonanno, Kurt Engfehr Title A name given to the resource The Yes Men Fix the World Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Rezo productions Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2009 Language A language of the resource English, Subtitles; Dutch Subject The topic of the resource Documentary, Comedy, culture jamming Contributor An entity responsible for making contributions to the resource Neel Murgai and Noisola (music), Patrick Lichty (animation), April Merl (editor) Relation A related resource <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/film/2009/aug/07/yes-men-fix-world-film-review">guardian review</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/film/filmreviews/5984128/The-Yes-Men-Fix-The-World-review.html">telegraph </a> Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource 87 minutes duration Type The nature or genre of the resource Culture jamming, artist intervention, prank art, documentary Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant Netherlands Comedy Documentary
