Aroview: Riding a wave of highly successful feature docos from the political left, this one has the honour of being the funniest and perhaps most alarming.

Using satire as their political weapon, "The Yes Men" are an activist group who devise elaborate pranks in order to spark political debate. Mistaken for WTO representatives, they are able to infiltrate industry conferences where they find their preposterous lectures are taken seriously. Though wildly entertaining for audiences in on the joke, this resonates as a courageous and shrewd exposure of the complacency and ignorance at large in big business.
