Synopsis

For the past two decades, a loosely organized group of computer hackers, neo-communists and entrepreneurs has led the charge in a technological revolution that is undermining Microsoft's monopoly and fundamentally changing the way software is developed and owned. Filmed in 35mm Cinemascope, REVOLUTION OS explores the Open Source movement's origins through original interviews with its founders, and depicts the grassroots nature of the LINUX operating system and Open Source as they march into the mainstream.
