do you know any documentaries like Revolution OS? (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0308808/)
i watched Freedom Downtime (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0309614/) but it was awful (imdb suggestions suck?).

i also think most people liked Pirates of Silicon Valley (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0168122/) although it was not a documentary, nevertheless entertaining. (liked the guy who played ballmer)

Linux: The Codebreakers


A two-part documentary, The Codebreakers was aired on BBC World TV during May 2006. It investigates how poor countries are using FOSS applications for development, and includes stories and interviews from around the world.

I gave it a very honest look to see if I could find an original site, but I couldn't. So here are links to the vids:
