Description
Nobody who watched Super Size Me could ever look at McDonalds the same way again. Nobody who watched 30 Days could be ignorant to the other end of the spectrum. Morgan Spurlock has been the pioneer behind a movement to make documentary film more entertaining and accessible for mass audiences, and his latest venture, Where in the World is Osama Bin Laden?, includes the same humorous yet prodding sense of exploration that has made him famous. Anxious about bringing his unborn child into a world where fear of terrorism and ignorance of foreign cultures runs rampant, Spurlock sets out on a journey to explore the differences between our culture and that of the Middle East and how these differences add to the misunderstandings, miscommunications, and even hatred between our cultures at the expense of overlooking our similarities.
At the 2008 Sundance Film Festival Zoom In Online’s Megan Cunningham talks with Spurlock, co-writer Jeremy Chilnick, and producer Stacey Offman about the topics the film explores.
