Yes Men

"With poker-faced impersonation as their weapon, and World Trade Organization officials as their target, the Yes Men pull off one bold prank after another in an effort to raise political consciousness. And when their outrageous stunts are actually swallowed--hook, line and sinker--the Yes Men must up the satirical ante and push the art of public spectacle to hilarious new heights." -- Back of case.

"Les "Yes Men", un petit groupe d'activistes, créent un faux site Internet affilié à l'Organisation Mondiale du Commerce. Leur ruse fonctionnant au-delà de leurs espérances, ils parviennent à infiltrer les rangs de l'OMC, alors qu'ils sont opposés à la dite organisation. Se rendant de conférences internationales en conférences internationales, ils profitent alors de leur nouvel statut pour pousser les théories du libre-commerce mondial au paroxysme, et ce parfois de façon spectaculaire, afin de réveiller les consciences..."
"La historia comienza cuando dos activistas antiglobalización, Mike Bonanno y Andy Bichlbaum, deciden hacer una página web parodiando la página oficial de la Organización Mundial del Comercio. Algunos visitantes no se dan cuenta de que la web es falsa y comienzan a enviar invitaciones para conferencias y ponencias. Siguen la broma y acuden a las invitaciones haciéndose pasar por representantes de la OMC. Encantados con la idea de hablar como la organización a la que se oponen, deciden escandalizar a su desprevenido público con divertidas sátiras de humor negro sobre la globalización. Los expertos no sólo no parecen notar el engaño, sino que están de acuerdo con cualquier idea disparatada que plantean este dúo de impostores."@es

"Les activistes américains Andy Bichlbaum et Mike Bonanno ont lancé un site Internet satirique dénonçant les positions de l'Organisation mondiale du commerce. Mais comme la mise en pages ressemble à s'y méprendre à celle du véritable site de l'organisme, les deux concepteurs reçoivent bientôt des invitations pour participer à diverses conférences économiques à travers le monde. Voyant là une occasion inespérée de véhiculer leur message anti-corporation, les deux compères se font donc passer pour des représentants de l'OMC et, durant leurs présentations, se livrent à des mises en scène farfelues ou absurdes. La préparation et l'exécution de ces gags subversifs est parfois entrecoupée de commentaires de sympathisants de Bonanno et Bichlbaum, dont le cinéaste Michael Moore."
