[VIDEO] TBI Archives no.1- ETHOS | A Time For Change Documentary

ethos documentary
The Ethos documentary, a very powerful documentary hosted by American actor, Woody Harrelson, is an investigation into the flaws in our nations' systems, and the mechanisms that work against democracy, our environment and the common good. With a stunning depth of research and breath of analysis, Ethos: A Time For Change,  delves deep into the inter-connected worlds of Politics, Multi-National Corporations and the Media.

Most of us have wondered at some point how we have arrived at a situation where democracy is touted as having created an equal society when all we see is injustice and corruption. Politicians openly deceive the public with the support of major corporations and the mainstream media.

 Wars are waged, the environment is destroyed and inequality is on the rise.

What is the source of these institutional mechanisms which – when we scratch the surface – are so clearly anti-democratic, so contradictory to the values we hold in common and yet so firmly embedded that they seem beyond discussion?


Ethos opens a Pandora’s box that has it’s roots in the cross-roads where capitalism-meets-democracy, implicates every power-elite puts profit before people and finally offers a solution whereby you – the viewer – can regain control using the one thing they do care about – your cash. The documentary really shares the truth of what we are allowing to happen and how what we can do to stop it!

This film is truly something I enjoyed and learned much from. I urge any and everyone to take the time to do the same. Watch the full, 52-minute documentary below.
