This movie conveys so well the passion, energy and responsibility which is created when developers of products work directly for consumers of products. Developers don't work for a boss in the way who theorizes about his view of what people want - they work for users who want their product.The excitement of the financial gain is portrayed well by the real-time updates but so too is the associated product delivery responsibility.Of particular interest was the "Freaker" product whose off-beat personality made him completely unable to obtain funding via traditional channels.The developer / buyer connection displayed here portends well for this movement - loved the production !

Rarely there's something as consistent as a crowdfunded documentary about crowdfunding. Through constant feedback, driven by the crowdfunding-community, and thoughtful production and creation this crowdfunding documentary really expresses what this "crowdfunding revolution", that is happening at the precise moment beetween ourselves, is all about. This movie clearly didn't want to show the good and bad sides of crowdfunding, didn't want to study the pros and cons, considering risks and chances. Crowdfunding is about empowering people to fulfill the wishes of many others, its honest to the bone and liberating to the society we live in, that is only just heavily dependent on big global players and companies. This movie wants to convey liberating and empowering feelings to the audience and thats what its doing very convincing. In this whole new refreshing world of business, that is created by crowdfunding you need to take risks to win everything. The more people people will dare to take part in this revolving development the closer we'll get to a market economy, that is truly controlled by the needs of the people. It's enabling visionary pioneers to give the people what they want – withouttelling them what they have to want. Failure is an option in this new system, that is all about trial and error and this movie contributes to the whole movement in a very encouraging way.
