Shared Meaning

Shared Meanings is a documentary with a series of interviews that seeks
to raise more questions about the current narratives of multinational
corporations, who sell a socio-technological imaginary that will bring a
future of zero emissions and free of pollution through clean energy,
hiding extractivism, labor exploitation, privatization and environmental
deregulation in the countries where raw materials are extracted.
Shared Meanings seeks to compile solutions and radical alternatives in
the context of the debate on global and just transitions, weaving
possibilities of (re)thinking and (re)constructing socio-environmental
political spaces that are critical but propositive at the same time.
