In celebration of Fair Employment Week


The Divide


Directed by Katharine Round


2016 | 78 min | UK/USA | Not Rated


The Divide lays bare the spectacle of global inequality by taking a sharp look at the super-rich, supra-managerial class whose earnings are so stratospheric, so out of proportion to anything their companies are achieving, that their existence is almost beyond reckoning.


Enjoying what Milton Friedman called socialism for the rich and free enterprise for the poor, their prestige is guaranteed by the state whose grandest politicians yearn to enjoy corporate super-wealth in retirement. Meanwhile, the humbler among us are stuck with zero-hours contracts and no job security.
