Km 0 September 2003, Color, 58 min
From September 10-14, 2003, the World Trade Organization barricaded itself inside of Cancún's luxury hotel strip to set the terms by which our lives would be bought and sold. Thousands of people from around the world came to tear down their fences. By the end of the week, their barricade was a twisted wreck and the talks had collapsed, as 22 delegates from countries representing 75 percent of the world's population walked out.
Km 0 is an exciting compilation video about the WTO meetings, with contributions from more than a dozen collectives and individuals, including a segment on tourism and globalization by Sonya Diehn. This full cut includes subtitles in Spanish and English.
