Pencils Down! The 100 Days of the Writers Guild Strike (2014)
Standing up for Writer's Rights
This movie follows the Writer's Guild Strike in 2007 and chronicles the process the writers went through throughout the 100 days. The focus of the strike was around the rights the creators of content have and how they get paid moving into the "internet" world we live in today and the digital rights for the future.
The movie shows actual footage of events during the strike as well as one-on-one interviews with those involved. Watching this movie takes you through the process and history during the time when hard working people/writers were fighting for their livelihood to gain the respect of their industry and gain the rights they deserve.
This is a good journey for anyone watching to see the decisions made to stand up for what you feel is right for the time and for the future.
