world vs bank: the film
In October 2007, Friends of the Earth International held a Public Hearing on the World Bank. Now you can order a film that presents the voices and faces of witnesses who gave testimony on how World Bank policies and practices impact our world.
The testimonies reveal what happens to people and the environment as a result of economic policy conditions attached to World Bank loans, and as a result of World Bank financed oil and gas projects.
The film illustrates the many cases in which World Bank activities have led to more poverty, the violation of peoples' rights, and environmental devastation. But the testimonies also are stories of resistance and resilience and impart hope for a better future.
The 20-minute DVD is available in English and Spanish, with the option of English, Spanish, French, Italian, German and Dutch subtitles.
