Ethos (2011)

Ethos was released in 2011. Woody Harrelson hosts this informative documentary, presenting a comprehensive analysis of the most fundamental elements that amount to the current global system. Noam Chomsky and Howard Zinn, among others, draw the big picture with respect to topics like the threat to democracy via suspension of civil rights in the US, social inequality and poverty, 21st century proxy-warfare, environmental destruction. Interestingly, the movie concludes with an appeal to the viewers, urging them to turn around the system, not by revolution, but by educated consumerism.
