Addie Morfoot Contributor In “Union,” documentary filmmakers Brett Story and Stephen Maing follow the Amazon Labor Union (ALU), a group of current and former Amazon workers as they attempt to unionize Amazon employees working at a facility in Staten Island, N.Y.
The directing duo chronicles just how excruciatingly hard it is to form a workers’ union in America — especially at Amazon.
