Review: “GLOBAL EUROPE: AN UNDEMOCRATIC LOVE AFFAIR”
Director: Olivier Hoedeman
Running Time: 11 minutes
Genre: Documentary
Global Europe: An Undemocratic Love Affair is a one-sided documentary arguing that the European Union places corporate interests over the interests of European and global citizens. More political ad than it is true documentary, the short is very well done. It pays no heed to the other side and does everything it can to paint them in a negative light, but the argument it makes is a strong and convincing one. Innovatively edited, the creative presentation is able to keep audiences tuned in, maintaining an interesting and lively feel.
