It's Everybody's Business

About This Movie

It's Everybody's Business is a curious blend of animation and documentary that dives headfirst into the waters of capitalist ideology. Directed by Carl Urbano, it’s got this unique tone, almost earnest in its delivery, yet feels like a playful nudge at the viewer. The animation isn’t groundbreaking but serves its purpose well, creating a vibrant backdrop for the messaging. The pacing has this almost hypnotic flow, which you’d expect from a propaganda piece, lulling you into its ideals while cleverly weaving in themes of individualism and economic freedom. It’s distinctive in how it presents a seemingly straightforward narrative, but there’s layers to peel back if you’re into socio-economic discussions. Definitely one to ponder over with a group.
