COVID-19: The System

Just watched the Dutch documentary COVID-19 The system (available for free until December 19th via docsfair.nl).

Main protagonist of this documentary is Nico Sloot, international businessman extraordinaire. He put thousands of hours in researching the current pandemic. He also has a boat and goes hiking, sometimes he stares thoughtfully in the distance.

It's refreshing to hear another sound other than the cookiecutter blabber of politicians. I must admit there are interesting points made. In order of appearance: the T-cell argument, the dubious role of big pharma/big tech/(inter)national politics, the absence of critical and independent press and the legacy of an outdated monetary system to name a few.

To my personal taste, Nico has a bit too much screen time and paints a too subjective picture to make this a great documentary. As an introduction to geopolitics and power machinations, it certainly is interesting material.
