At the heart of this space is the container box, which, since its invention in the 1950s, has become one of the most important mechanisms for the global spread of capitalism. The film follows the container box along the international supply chain, from ships to barges, trains, and trucks, mapping the byzantine networks that connect producers to consumers (and more and more frequently, producing nations to consuming ones). Visiting the major ports of Rotterdam, Los Angeles, Hong Kong, Guangdong province, and many places between, it connects the economic puzzle pieces that corporations and governments would prefer remain scattered. We meet people who have been reduced to cogs in this increasingly automated machine - the invisible laborers who staff the cargo ships, steer the barges, drive the trucks, and migrate to the factories, and whose low wages form the base of the entire enterprise. The film also introduces us to those who this system's efficiency has marginalized: the longtime unemployed occupants of a California tent city, Dutch farmers whose land is bisected by a new high- speed train line, and the displaced residents of Doel, Belgium, whose city is slated for demolition in order to expand the port of Antwerp. Employing a wide range of materials and styles, from interviews to classic film clips, essayistic voiceover to observational footage, The Forgotten Space provides a panoramic portrait of the new global economy and a compelling argument about why it must change. 521 8 Not rated. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 Freight and freightage|xSocial aspects. 650 0 Harbors|xSocial aspects. 650 0 Globalization. 650 0 Business logistics|xSocial aspects. 655 7 Video recordings for the hearing impaired.|2lcgft 700 1 Reemst, Frank van,|efilm producer. 700 1 Verheij, Joost,|efilm producer. 700 1 Lucassen, Vincent,|efilm producer. 700 1 Sinzinger, Ebba,|efilm producer. 700 1 Burch, Noël,|d1932-|efilm director,|escreenwriter. 700 1 Sekula, Allan,|efilm director,|escreenwriter. 700 1 Burch, Noël,|d1932-|efilm director. 700 1 Sekula, Allan,|efilm director,|enarrator,|escreenwriter. 700 1 Andriessen, Louis,|d1939-|ecomposer. 700 1 Tesi, Riccardo|c(Accordionist),|ecomposer. 710 2 hoopla digital. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/11554486|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ ica_854565001848_180.jpeg
