I ayikwazi ukutusa idokhumenti entsha ye-Shadow World ngokwanele. Iphethe i-punch enkulu emaminithini angu-90, inikeze i-akhawunti ebhubhisa imboni yezikhali kanye nempumelelo yayo ekutholeni izinhlelo zezepolitiki zase-US nase-UK.
Isakhiwo sezempi-zezimboni senze umshini wempi womhlaba wonke odinga ukudla okungapheli. Izimpi azisekho ukunqoba, kodwa zizokhishwa kuze kube nini nanini, zenze i-elite encane ne-gargantuan neyanda njalo.
I-Shadow World iqala ngokuhlola ukuphakama kwengxenye yekhulu leminyaka edlule yombangazwe omusha wezombangazwe wamahhala, okuthandwa nguMargaret Thatcher noRonald Reagan, abenza iqhaza elikhulu ngebhizinisi elikhulu ukuze bahlukanise impi - okwenza kube yimakethe ehamba phambili kakhulu emhlabeni i-hydro-carbons. Ezindaweni eziningi, njenge-Iraq, lamathuba amabhizinisi amabili aqoqa.
Lo mshazi wezombusazwe-u-cum-war wasesimweni esifanayo njengomuntu onjengeDick Cheney (Halliburton) noTony Blair (BAe). Impi manje ibhizinisi elinjalo elizuzisa ukuthi osopolitiki abangeke banakekele ukuthi uhlangothi lwabo luzuzisa. Ukuphela, ukufa okuzuzisayo nokubhujiswa kuwumgomo. Izigameko, izimbangi, izakhamuzi - umshini wezempi awunandaba nekusasa labo.
Omunye umdayisi wezandla uveza ngokuthula, ngesigwebo esesabekayo, esikuthengayo izikhali-ngamalanga afana nesitolo sokudla. Zisetshenziswa noma zichithekile. Ngokuvamile kuvame ukusetshenziswa. Noma ngabe yikuphi, i-larder kumele igcwaliswe ngezikhali ezintsha.
I-documentary ihlola imigomo yokuqapha ngaphezulu kwemboni yempi, ijoyine amachashazi phakathi kwe-Iraq, i-Iran, iSiriya, iGaza nakwezinye izindawo.
Futhi ngezikhathi ezijulile zezinkondlo, le ifilimu inselela inkulumo-memezelo yama-evangelists yamahhala ukuthi imboni yezikhali imane nje ibonakalisa izimo zethu ezingqubuzana njengezinto zobugovu, ezihahayo, ezingathembeki. I-Shadow World inikeza izikhumbuzo ezinamandla ukuthi abantu abavamile, kuhlanganise namasosha, bathanda uthando phezu kwempi.
Yiyona i-Blairs ne-Cheneys, izakhi zemishini yempi, okuyizinto eziphambene nomuntu.
