A Fair(y) Use Tale by Eric Faden, 2007 [10:13]

A Fair(y) Use Tale is at once an educational film about the nature of copyright law and a critical commentary on the over-extension of such laws by companies like Disney. The film unfolds over five “chapters,” each dealing with a separate aspect of copyright, from its basic definition, to fair use and the public domain, and a justification for using exclusively Disney clips to make an example of a company that has misused copyright law in the name of profits.
