[LOOK] The Shock Doctrine (2007, ****), by Naomi Klein, Alfonso Cuarón and Jonás Cuarón.
The Shock Doctrine is playing at Toronto; a better version can be downloaded at Klein's site, where she writes that when she finished her new book, of the same title, "I sent it to Alfonso Cuarón because I adore his films and felt that the future he created for Children of Men was very close to the present I was seeing in disaster zones. I was hoping he would send me a quote for the book jacket and instead he pulled together this amazing team of artists -- including Jonás Cuarón who directed and edited -- to make The Shock Doctrine short film. It was one of those blessed projects where everything felt fated." (There's one more showing in Toronto, September 15 at 10:30.)
