Union 2024

[CPH:DOX '24] For better and worse, the film offers a perspective that is limited to the workers' point of view. But, although there are some hidden camera sequences inside the company that show the pressure exerted on workers not to unionize, the purpose of the film is not to show an unscrupulous corporate enemy. Although it could be seen as a traditional David versus Goliath fight, the directors are more interested in reflecting the difficulties within the union organization. A significant scene in which the small tent in which they meet outside the Amazon warehouse is about to fall apart due to the strong wind, reflects how unionism can be vulnerable in the face of a corporation that is based on labor exploitation.
