Description

Two world-renowned figures of contemporary politics come together to discuss transcendental topics and debate alternatives for the future: Jos� Pepe Mujica, former president of Uruguay and an ex-guerrilla who has gained enormous international popularity for his message of sustainability and common sense, and Noam Chomsky, an intellectual who revolutionized linguistics and later addressed a wide range of humanistic and political topics of profound importance.

Mexican documentary filmmaker Sa�l Alv�drez brought these two pivotal figures together for a fruitful exchange of ideas. From the meeting of these voices emerge reflections that allow an approach to many of the major issues that the world currently faces: the consequences of climate change, corruption, populism, the crisis of capitalism and its successive mutations, the logic of the market economy, and problems of production, among many others.

Chomsky and Mujica emphasize throughout the values that must be taken into account to move towards a sustainable future: democracy, freedom, purposeful living, love, and friendship are here the pillars from which to build a new world.
