In the film, an annual meeting of the WTO is held in Seattle, which is also a typical record of demonstrations and protests. The WTO summit in 1997 was a policy turning point for the WTO. During this meeting, mixed with the feelings of the protagonists of the demonstration, the police and his wife lost their pregnant son in the riot, which sideways reflected the extreme market orientation and lack of democracy of the WTO. Although this movie is not a classic work, after seeing it, I feel that I have a serious lack of understanding of the world, even my own country, and cannot see the root of many political tactics. In the face of the world, private feelings are small and often pass by, but we can speak, let people understand ourselves, and strive for what we want (although this is within the ideal range). Persistence is an unchanging law.

    Imperialist countries and the third world are natural enemies. The creators want to combine the struggles inside and outside the WTO venue into one camp, whether it is naive or insidious. The white leftists are coquettish, crying and arguing against the government. In fact, it is because with the awakening of the third world, the oppression of imperialism has to be restrained, and as a result, the domestic lazy people get less dividends and their living standards drop. The final reconciliation is nothing but a farce within the imperialist family. How can it have anything to do with the struggle for rights and interests of oppressed third world countries? !

    It's a bit ridiculous that TV even praised the WTO like a flower

Battle in Seattle quotes

  • Django: Teamsters and turtles together! Come on, Teamsters and turtles together!

  • Jay: I don't blame you. I mean, I do, but... Shit, you're not the problem. You're just doing your job, i guess. The people I'm really trying to fight are the ones who destroy so much, and they hurt so many lives. Not just one. Literally, millions. And no one ever points a gun at them. You know, they just seem so, unaccountable. Untouchable. Just seems kind of fucked that you're... You and me are the ones that have to fight each other.
