Morgan Spurlock & Adam Davidson On ‘We The Economy’ [VIDEO EXCLUSIVE]

Morgan Spurlock, the documentary filmmaker at the helm of Super Size Me and The Greatest Movie Ever Sold, is shaking things up again with his new digital series We The Economy: 20 Short Films You Can’t Afford To Miss. The series, which is a collaboration between Spurlock’s production company Cinelan and Paul Allen’s Vulcan, aims to educate Americans about the economy in ways that are accessible and entertaining.

Spurlock and advisor Adam Davidson explained to uInterview how We The Economy, which offers collaborations between with actors, leading directors and economists, seeks to break through the clutter. “We have 20 A-list actors, we are working with 10 brilliant economic minds, to tell stories that we should all understand a little bit better and that we should want to embrace,” Spurlock told uInterview.

One short film Davidson worked on, The Unbelievable Sweet Alpacas, a cartoon that confronts income inequality and features the voices of comics Sarah Silverman, Amy Poehler and Maya Rudolph. “They basically make it in a way where not only someone like me can understand. I think teachers will be able to these in classrooms. I think that friends will be able to send them to other friends when they are debating about what something truly is. I think there will be a long tail that to these movies will be really exciting in terms if the information they provide,” Spurlock said.
