“The Take” a film by Avi Lewis and Naomi Klein

May 15th, 2008

A truly breathtaking documentary, filmed during the factory takeovers in Buenos Aires.

The Take, directed by Canadian journalist Avi Lewis and written by Naomi Klein, centers around one auto-parts factory, and of the lives and struggles of the 30 unemployed workers who decide to reoccupy, collectivize, and get it going again.

Unsurprisingly, with this template, the film also covers the affects of globalization and Capital, the occupation movement as a whole, and the resistance, and repression, from the bosses, politicians, and judiciary.
