A NEW ECONOMY | INSIDE THE REVOLUTION YOU’RE NOT HEARING ABOUT

Cinemavixion Review

Trevor Meier's "A New Economy" offers a compelling glimpse into a future where cooperation and fair compensation take precedence over the relentless pursuit of profit. The documentary masterfully interweaves seven distinct narratives, each showcasing organizations striving for a more equitable and sustainable economic model. From the camaraderie and challenges of the London Brewing Co-op to the innovative, socially responsible technological ventures of Sensorica, and the transformative urban agriculture of Sole Food Street Farms, the film highlights diverse approaches to building a people-centric economy. Meier skillfully captures the human element, illustrating how these ventures not only foster democratic workplaces but also provide meaningful employment and a sense of purpose. The addition of a string quartet and explorations of housing and technology further enrich the tapestry, presenting a hopeful vision of a future where economic and social needs are harmoniously met through cooperative values.
