Made in Ethiopia takes viewers on an immersive journey into a rural Ethiopian town transformed by a sprawling Chinese industrial park. Over four years of exclusive access, the film captures the unfolding drama as the ambitious Chinese director, Motto, spearheads an expansion promising 30,000 new jobs. Central to the narrative are Ethiopian farmer Workinesh and factory worker Beti, whose personal stakes in the promised prosperity soon collide with the painful realities of rapid industrialization. This compelling documentary charts the collision between modern industrial forces and traditional agrarian life, and challenges simplistic narratives by exposing the nuanced, multifaceted impacts of globalization on Ethiopia.
