Amazon Empire: The Rise and Reign of Jeff Bezos

113 MIN · EN · STATUS: [ STREAMING ]

Jeff Bezos built Amazon from an online bookstore into a company that touches shipping, cloud computing, entertainment, and now space travel, and this Frontline investigation traces how that happened. Interviews with former executives, journalists, and Amazon insiders lay out the strategy behind the company's relentless growth: aggressive pricing that squeezed retail competitors, the buildout of a logistics network that made same-day delivery possible, and Amazon Web Services quietly becoming the backbone of much of the internet. The film covers the Whole Foods acquisition, the fight over a second headquarters, warehouse labor conditions, and Bezos's rivalry with antitrust regulators and lawmakers in Washington. It closes on Bezos's 2019 unveiling of Blue Moon, his lunar lander project, framing it as the next stage of an ambition that started with selling books out of a garage. The documentary treats Bezos less as a tech founder than as an empire builder, and asks what happens when one company's infrastructure becomes everyone else's dependency.
