Delicate Balance

Streaming video - 2016

A contemplative essay on the everyday reality of globalization. Uruguayan President Mujica’s ideas about modern society, where economic interests prevail over human values, are used to connect three stories: A Japanese salaryman in Tokyo, a sub-Saharan community trying to cross the borders into Europe, a family evicted from their own home in Spain. Three stories intertwined on three different continents. A DELICATE BALANCE is a clear-sighted documentary about the socio-economic mess we’re making of our world, but it also comes with suggestions from Mujica about how to change it for the better. Winner of Best Documentary at the **Goya Awards**. *“Required viewing in a time of global crisis... A rangy, ambitious and surprisingly upbeat ...state-of-the-world documentary.” – Jonathan Holland, **The Hollywood Reporter***
