Summary |
"Mardi Gras explores the production, consumption, and disposal of Mardi Gras beads. Follows the bead trail backwards from Mardi Gras to the factories where the beads are made....No Logo....sheds light on the phenomenon of corporate branding, the brilliant, insidious advertising technique of selling, not products, but identities and lifestyles. Matamoros [is a] revealing look at the small border town of Matamoros, Mexico, that exposes the environmental and human toll of NAFTA, the 'free trade' agreement of the Americas."--Container. |
