Seems to me most of international business is basically just a bunch of legal money laundering, so yeah, that's what happening to the money itself, but I'm looking for a word that refers to how the films are being used - their changing function as a form of propaganda (at least it used to be expected to make money and entertain people. Now they're more like ... PSAs, "Duck and Cover" or those Donald Duck wartime shorts. Or Triumph of the Will, for that matter. Doesn't matter if they make money, that's not their purpose. Hell, they're barely even caring about "entertaining".
