Inequality For All
(91 min) US
[watch trailer]

Tuesday 10/20, 4:10 PM (Session 12)

Director: Jacob Kornbluth
Producer: Jen Chaiken, Sebastian Dungan

Description:
Inequality for All reminds us that democracy is not a spectator sport and that the divide between rich and poor is growing in the United States. In this timely and entertaining documentary, noted economic policy expert Robert Reich takes on the enormous question of what has been happening to our economy. He distills the story through the lens of widening income inequality—currently at historic highs—and and explores what effects this increasing gap has not only on our economy but our democracy itself.

Biography:
Jacob Kornbluth is an award-winning writer and director of two feature films: Haiku Tunnel with Josh Kornbluth, and The Best Thief in the World with Mary-Louise Parker. Both films premiered in competition at the Sundance Film Festival. Haiku Tunnel was released by Sony Pictures' Classics in 2001—September 11, 2001 was its premiere, if you can believe that— and The Best Thief was made and released by Showtime Independent Films. He was a fellow at the Sundance Screenwriting Labs twice, and the Sundance Directing lab once. Jacob started his career as a writer and director in the theater. He collaborated on and directed three successful solo shows in San Francisco. The Moisture Seekers, Pumping Copy (both with Josh Kornbluth), and The Face by the Door (with Christina Robbins). All three were nominated for or won Best Of The Bay awards and successfully toured the country, and a later version of The Moisture Seekers (called Red Diaper Baby) has been included in anthologies of the best one man shows of the 90's. Over fifteen years in the film business, Jacob has started and successfully funded two production companies and worked at virtually every job on a film set, from director to producer to AD to PA.
