Co-ops are a big part of the global economy: they employ 10% of the world's workforce and over two trillion dollars flow through their doors every year. At a co-op, there's no single person with overarching, top-down power over everyone else, like a CEO at a traditional company. So what exactly is a co-op and how does it work? Explore the different types of cooperatives and how they operate. \[Directed by Elizabeth Galian, AIM Creative Studios, narrated by George Zaidan, music by André Aires, João Mendes\].
