Imbd 7.6/10
It has been a long time since I posted the last synopsis. It's because the movies I watched recently not worth commenting.
This time I would like to comment about American Factory.
It is a documentary movie that was well made so that we, those who watch, do not feel bored following the course of the story.
The synopsis:
When the General Motor in Ohio America closed down, a lot of workers lost their job and their life became so difficult.
Then came a businessman from China invested his money. He bought the company and change it to glass factory. A lot of people who lost the job found this investment relieving their unemployment problem.
The problem was that there were differences in cultures and principles that created a lot of problems. The Chinese workers were hardworking and ready to work even on weekends and they worked like machines. Having this culture in mind made the chinese think that the westerners were too slow in working.
In the eyes of the Americans, the Chinese were too crazy...like machines and not feeling bored, not feeling tired, and ready to take high risk and low in safety.
When there were accidents in that factory then came the problem that the Chinese had been afraid of, the worker union. The Chinese boss thought that the worker union would make the workers go on strike and he had stressed it in the beginning of the investment that if the union interfere the factory then he would close down the company.
Find out how the two sides, the Americans and the Chineses came to agreement and compromise the differences...
It was also stressed in the movie that in the near future humans would be replaced by machines..and it is estimated that by the 2030, 375 millions people would lose their jobs.
Are we ready for this change?
