Teenage is a 2013 documentary film directed by Matt Wolf and based on Jon Savage‍‍ '​‍s book Teenage: The Creation of Youth Culture. In the documentary, Wolf attempts to bring to life the "prehistory" of youth culture which preceded and evolved into the concept of teenage culture in the 1950s and beyond. The film had its world premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival on April 20, 2013. and was released in a limited release and through video on demand on March 14, 2014, by Oscilloscope Laboratories.

Synopsis

The film documents the evolution of youth culture from the early twentieth century starting in 1904 until the end of WWII in 1945 when the concept of the "teenager" was developed. Youth culture and movements through four decades of evolution are examined as they emerged primarily in European countries. By the end of World War II, the new teenage demographic was recognised in 1945 with the publication by The New York Times of the "Teen Age Bill of Rights" by Elliot E. Cohen, which, among other things, asserted the youths' right to determine their future and control their lives.

John Pilger explores the impact of globalisation, taking Indonesia as his prime example, a country that the World Bank described as a "model pupil" until its 'globalised' economy collapsed in 1998. Under scrutiny are the increasingly powerful multinationals and the institutions that back them, notably the IMF and The World Bank.

De Mickey Mouse à Mary Poppins, du cinéma à la télévision, en passant par le parc Disneyland, Walt Disney a touché le coeur de millions de spectateurs à travers le monde entier avec une seule et même recette : transporter les gens dans la magie. Sur l'initiative de sa fille, Diane Disney Miller, et présenté par la légende Disney, Dick Van Dike, un des acteurs de Mary Poppins, le film révèle, dans un instructif portrait, l'homme qui se cache derrière le mythe, en présentant non seulement une panoplie d'interviews de ses amis, de ses collaborateurs et d'experts en tous genres mais aussi des films privés de la famille Disney. Des périodes fastes aux périodes difficiles, mal-aimé ou reconnu, Walt Disney est toujours resté un homme non seulement, innovateur, dynamique et perfectionniste pour ses studios mais aussi profondément dévoué à sa famille.
