“There are no flashy production values in this documentary but i got instantly hooked on this film, as I myself on a very similar project, currently working from royal art school, Sweden.nHow a viewer not interested in trademark law would experience this film is beyond me, but I found it hilarious.nYou donu0026#39;t have to be an expert in trademark law or anything to find this film great but you would need to have an original interest, I believe.nOr would this film perhaps create a curiosity in you?nBecause itu0026#39;s basically a film with people sitting down giving their sides on a continuously escalating trademark infringement.nFlashy editing would just be distracting from what goes on in the story.nIu0026#39;m a fashion nerd too so this film was spot on for me.nA little Banksy over it too, what with the constant exploration of whatu0026#39;s right and whatu0026#39;s wrong in a capitalist society.nChoose your words wisely…”
