Encontro com Milton Santos ou O mundo global visto do lado de cá, documentário do cineasta brasileiro Sílvio Tendler, discute os problemas da globalização sob a perspectiva das periferias (seja o terceiro mundo, seja comunidades carentes). O filme é conduzido por uma entrevista com o geógrafo e intelectual baiano Milton Santos (1926–2001), gravada quatro meses antes de sua morte. Considerado um dos maiores pensadores brasileiros do século XX, Milton Santos não era contra a globalização e sim contra o modelo de globalização perversa vigente no mundo, que ele chamava de globalitarismo. Analisando as contradições e os paradoxos deste modelo econômico e cultural, Milton enxergou a possibilidade de construção de uma outra realidade, mais justa e mais humana.
