"Acest film despre consumism ne-a consumat de tot... Foloseste limbajul video-clipului, al propagandei si publicitatii comerciale ca raspuns la fortele globalizarii. Raspunde cu foc la foc.

Pentru originalitate, sens al umorului, ironie, putere si virtuozitate vizuala, premiul Lupul de Argint este decernat peliculei Surplus." Start: 19:00

Dupa al II-lea Razboi Mondial, America a investit majoritatea banilor in costructia suburbiilor. Se promitea un sens al spatiului, al posibilitatilor financiare, o viata de familie si un grad de mobilitate ridicat. Suburbia a devenit Visul American. Dupa intrarea in secolul 21 numeroase intrebari au inceput sa apara despre soliditatea acestui fel de viata. Cu onestitate brutala si ironie, filmul analizeaza modul de viata american si predictiile pe masura ce lumea se apropie de o era critica, atunci cand cererea de petrol va fi mai mare ca oferta. | ||
