authors: NAOMI KLEIN, ALFONSO CUARÓN & JONÁS CUARÓN – duration: 06:47
It is with some hesitation that we present you this short film by Alfonso Cuarón and Naomi Klein, directed by Alfonso’s son Jonás Cuarón. For sure the film is a cunning marketing tool; after watching it you might want to acquire the BOOK with the same title. Besides that, it’s not user generated material; it is made by a young film director who appears to be the son of his well known father filmmaker Alfonso. But we endorse Klein’s theory and think it’s worth sharing.
“When I finished The Shock Doctrine, I sent it to Alfonso Cuarón because I adore his films and felt that the future he created for Children of Men was very close to the present I was seeing in disaster zones. I was hoping he would send me a quote for the book jacket and instead he pulled together this amazing team of artists — including Jonás Cuarón who directed and edited — to make The Shock Doctrine short film. It was one of those blessed projects where everything felt fated.”
