A documentary funded by the Obama family, it made me a little skeptical at first, but after watching the entire movie, i have to admit the producers tried their best to present the stories from both side albeit being supported by an obviously unneutral funding.
The most interesting thing is the contrast between how a an entrepreneur from (socialist) China preaches the purest form of capitalism and how a small group of American workers tried to enforce worker's union, a very socialist creation long hated by past American industrialists.
Why is this incomplete?
Because the ending makes it look like FUGA (Fuyao Glass America) was going to fail.
In reality, FUGA has become a very successful company. Without UAW interference and after firing all the troublemakers, FUGA hired a lot of young people, and turned to a profit, and contributing huge amount of taxes to support America.
I dont want to guess the intention behind why the documentary tried to shed negative lights on FUGA and didn't interview the majority of voters who voted against UAW, but it makes viewers like me wonder why do they paint a negative tone on a company that is reviving the Rust Belt while all other American companies are retreating?
