Collapse - full documentary 2009 with Michael Ruppert

Imminent man-made catastrophe is explained for us with clarity and conviction in this alarming new documentary by director Chris Smith (The Yes Men,).

“Collapse takes the nerve-racking theories of Michael Ruppert, a doom theorist, and places the chain smoker front and center to deliver them personally for 82 riveting minutes. Ruppert predicted the economic meltdown with great specificity; he also sees the end of police forces, road systems, air-traffic control and capitalism – within the next 20 to 50 years. You can’t take your eyes off him.” — Joshua Rothkopf, Time Out NY.

“You’d be hard-pressed to find a movie that channels the anxieties of our time with the power and terror of the documentary Collapse… The grippingly articulate Ruppert is like Noam Chomsky as a wry pundit of doom.” — Owen Glieberman, Entertainment Weekly.

“Collapse is a gruelling peek at a doomsday prophet’s rigorous mind but in a sly way also a compassionate look at the strain Ruppert endures from knowing he has only ever been right.” — Robert Abele, LA Times

“A compelling one man argument and a riveting watch.” — Darren Bevan, TVNZ.co.nz

"You can focus on me, or you can focus on the likely imminent collapse of human industrialized civilization, and I think that's the more important story."
