YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

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.
