Breaking Social: Building a Path from Anger to Hope
Show Notes

There's a new addition to the WG Film catalog! Fredrik's latest film, Breaking Social, is about the social contract we live by in society -- and the ways that the social contract is subverted and abused by the ultra-wealthy to undermine democracy and give them control of the world we live in. From Chile to the Netherlands, Breaking Social explores our upside-down economy while asking the question: 'Can we afford the rich?'

The film, which features many previous guests from Pushback Talks, made its debut on March 16th at the CPH:DOX International Film Festival. Now, join Fredrik and Leilani as they discuss the making of the film and how Fredrik hopes Breaking Social will help turn people's anger into hope, and help us find a way beyond cynicism and despair.

Let's change the conversation, and start talking about the society we want to build.
