We Are Many chronicles the struggle to shift power from the old establishment to the new superpower that is global public opinion, through the prism of one historic day.

We Are Many Movie Reviews

The whole world came together on 15 February 2003

We Are Many (2014) is a documentary written and directed by Amir Amirani. It tells the story of the worldwide attempt to prevent the US/Great Britain invasion of Iraq in 2003. (Some more recent footage of the BLM protests has been added at the end of the movie.)

The film is a mixture of talking heads and documentary footage. The people interviewed are knowledgeable, and it’s worth hearing what they say. The footage is excellent.

This was the biggest worldwide demonstration in history. Between six and ten million people took part in protests in up to sixty countries over the weekend of February 15th and 16th, 2003.

As we know, the protests failed, and Bush and Blair went on with their plans and invaded Iraq. It’s now apparent that the reason for the invasion was false. However, the suffering was real.

The filmmakers make the case that, after 2003, the demonstrations had a positive effect for other countries. Also, it’s possible that citizen opposition to the war against Syria prevented that war from taking place. It’s hard to know whether this material is correct, or just wishful thinking.

I saw this movie as a live-streamed video used as a fundraiser for a consortium of progressive groups. I don’t know if you can find it on DVD or Netflix, etc.

To my surprise the movie has a tepid IMDb rating of 6.7. I think that it’s an excellent documentary, and deserves a much higher rating. I rated it 9.

In a time of big Lies, the Truth is a revolutionary act

Stating the obvious is not always such an extraordinary act. But in the current world we live in, in sham “democracies” where truth tellers like Assange are jailed and tortured for revealing war crimes whilst the lying war criminals who committed them walk free without consequence, such a film that states the obvious truth is an extraordinary and revolutionary act. Bravo to Amir and his team for authentically capturing a historic period when the emergence (and re-emergence in some quarters) of people power and principally the anti-war movement took shape, and yet despite the criminal tragedy of the illegal and immoral war that followed despite overwhelming opposition, this movement has laid a seed of peace that continues to grow, even despite the efforts of the evil elites to subdue or control it. As a historical documentary alone, this film brilliantly captures the time and it’s diverse voices, and technically it is brilliantly directed, produced, edited, and scored. Some of the giant voices of reason in this documentary have sadly passed away since it’s creation (RIP Tony Benn), but the beauty of such a profound document is that their voices and contribution, like those millions of people who turned up to say no to war against Iraq (including me), is that it is enshrined into a record for generations to learn of and be inspired by to action against tyrannous regimes like the one of Tony war criminal Blair. We are many and counting! Ten out of Ten.

Hugely Significant Film Making

Brilliantly seamed documentary, anyone who cares about global humanity should watch this. Some documentaries are said to change the world, this one makes subtle yet hugely significant changes in us which could have its part in changing the world. It is important to come back to these events that seem to disappear for the majority of us, not too long after they happen. It is important to reflect on our history and review the stance we did or did not take at the time. We Are Many is a reminder of the atrocities we can choose to or not to take part in and says that if we choose to respect life, there is probably millions of other people that feel the same way.

Thank you to everyone involved in the film!
