Union

2023, Not rated, 100 min. Directed by Stephen Maing and Brett Story.

In an absurd way, the fact that this worker-focused doc came out the same year (2024) as another Marky Mark slopfest with the near-exact same title (Union vs. The Union) shows just how dire our entertainment landscape is. However, as presented by everyone’s favorite anti-capitalist bookshop MonkeyWrench, the Stephen Maing and Brett Story-led feature follows the fascinating journey of Staten Island Amazon workers as they take steps to unionize their warehouse. Every member of the Amazon Labor Union (ALU) proves braver than Wahlberg even in his wildest 9/11 fantasies, as they’re facing the Bezos-created beast for real. HFC’s Sunday screening also includes a post-movie Q&A with Union’s producers. – James Scott
