    Fun project! For HN Pez fans, The Pez Outlaw is an amazing “hacker” collector documentary on Netflix that follows Steve Glew - who made his own dispensers semi-legit through connections in Europe (Pez Europe operated separately from Pez USA, and still does in many ways). Has some parallels to the scrappy nature of tech as well.
