Description
Iceland crowd-sourced its constitution online in a rare eruption of optimism among the 2008 financial crisis. Blueberry Soup is a feature length documentary at the epicenter of one of our time’s exciting movements: the Icelandic "People's Movement".. Jaws dropped around the world in October, 2008 as a small collective of bankers brought the global economy to its knees and a small nation’s everyday citizens rose in response by rewriting its constitution. The global meets the local in Blueberry Soup, woven into the island country’s breathtaking scenery and warm artic community, as the Icelandic community strove to take back their country in the age of the internet.. The constitutional council composed of clergy members, lawyers, radio hosts, and a farmer gave the public a chance at participating with an online draft and comments via social media - creating the world's first crowd-sourced constitution. If given a second chance, how does a nation rebuild? What lessons can other nations take away, what role does technology play, and what does participatory democracy look like in a post crash world?.
