Chain (film)

Chain (2004) is a "narrative/documentary"[1] film written and directed by Jem Cohen. The movie is about two women, a corporate executive and a young drifter whose lives are changed by the loss of regional identity due to the similarity of retail culture worldwide. Although the ladies' lives seem very distinct at the start, by the end of the film they have been reduced to similar viewpoints in their lives.
