La costruzione del petrolchimico Anic Gela, a seguito della scoperta del petrolio nel 1956, segna l’inizio del grande sogno industriale per il Sud. Enrico Mattei, attraverso il braccio operativo dell’Ufficio Cinema, chiama a raccolta i nomi più importanti del cinema documentario del tempo (Vittorio De Seta, Joris Ivens, i fratelli Taviani e Valentino Orsini, Gilbert Bovay, Giuseppe Ferrara, Piero Nelli e Massimo Mida) che danno vita a una narrazione nitida e coerente rappresentando la miseria del mondo rurale siciliano e la necessità di avviare un radicale processo di modernizzazione di tutto il Mezzogiorno. A distanza di oltre mezzo secolo, è facile rendersi conto del fallimento di quel sogno, perché studiare il cinema d’impresa ci permette di capire l’evoluzione della nostra storia recente, di quella politica ed conomica, ma anche di quella sociale. Per una speranza affamata prova a fare proprio questo: a mettere ordine tra le immagini, i desideri e le paure della Sicilia di allora e di oggi.

What unleashed the forces of global capitalism which continue to shape the world that we live in? Economists and economic historians variously point to innovations in logistics and trade, the emergence of a new set of business-friendly values and the emergence of new forms of applied knowledge in early modernity to solve this riddle. This book focuses on the moving image as a factor of economic development. In a series of in-depth cases studies at the intersection of film and media studies, science and technology studies and economic and social history, Films That Work Harder: The Circulations of Industrial Film presents an in-depth, global perspective on the dynamic relationship between film, industrial organization and economic development. Bringing together new research from leading scholars from Europe, Asia, Australia and North America, this book combines the state of the art in the field with an agenda for a future research.

"Cinema and the Wealth of Nations explores how media principally in the form of cinema was used during the interwar years by elite institutions to establish and sustain forms of liberal political economy beneficial to their interests. It examines the media produced and circulated by institutions such as states, corporations, and investment banks, as well as the emergence of a corporate media industry and system supported by state policy and integral to the establishment of a new consumer system. Lee Grieveson sketches a genealogy of the use of media to encode liberal political and economic power across the period that saw the United States eclipse Britain as the globally hegemonic power and the related inauguration of new forms of liberal economic globalization. But this is not a distant history. Cinema and the Wealth of Nations examines a foundational conjuncture in the establishment of media forms and a media system instrumental in, and structural to, the emergence and expansion of a world system that has been--and continues to be--brutally violent, unequal, and destructive."--Provided by publisher.
