Flooded McDonald's is a film work by Superflex in which a convincing life-size replica of the interior of a McDonald's, without any customers or staff present, gradually floods with water. Reviews of this film claim many things. It is a commentary on the relationships between global warming, and, or our role as consumers, and, or our growing social unrest, and, or globalization, and, or capitalist imperialism. This film is too loose and too raw to just place one label to describe the purpose of this art piece, and to possibly use it as a tool for some end. So with this film, although it does manifest many different subjects in the mind of the viewer, It generally points you in the right direction (and not like animal rights or the moon). You could say that they've tried to make it as open to interpretation as possible so people can bring their own views into it. So people... what is your interpretation?
This is a short clip of the actual 20 min run time... enjoy...
