Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Dark Side of Chocolate is a 2010 documentary film exposing the widespread, but strangely unknown-to-the-public, use of child slaves in the cocoa industry. It follows the lives of children in the cocoa fields, their working conditions, and the abuse of power of morality and ethics therein.Fair warning, the documentary is quite effective at showing just how ethical boundaries have been ignored by these companies, and can be a little distressing to watch, so watch at your discretion.The documentary is narrated by David Bateson, of all people.

Bittersweet Ending: Though, the producers didn't quite get through to the chocolate companies, they did get through INTERPOL's, ILO, the president, one CEO in South Cacao, along with bringing awareness of the subject on top of over 100 getting rescued in the aftermath, but, at the end of the day, there's still more work and effort to be done.

Corporate Conspiracy: There was a move in June 28, 2001 by U.S. House of Representatives to label chocolate "slave-free" that was shot down by the chocolate industry, as they lobbied against Congress. Considering the scale of the problem and the fact that is been going on over ten years yet so few people seems to know about this, it's hard to believe this is not going on.

Corrupt Corporate Executive: Considering all the chocolate companies' unwillingness to view their footage, it's quite clear this is at play somewhere in the food chain.
