There is another way - La Cooperativa


Behind Italy’s beauty (and parmesan) is a radical tradition of cooperatives. In some areas, they make up nearly a fifth of the GDP. 

We went to Emilia-Romagna, one of the richest regions in the country, to investigate how Italy’s workers built a more democratic economy.

Many thanks to the Bologna Film Commission and the City of Reggio Emilia for the support and for the assistance.

'If we don't question our system then we can't change our system'.

PS - Fascists don't like coops so if you want to piss off the oligarchs form cooperatives!
