Requiem for the American Dream
is the definitive discourse with Noam Chomsky, widely regarded as the most important intellectual alive, on the defining characteristic of our time - the deliberate concentration of wealth and power in the hands of a select few. Through interviews filmed over four years, Chomsky unpacks the principles that have brought us to the crossroads of historically unprecedented inequality - tracing a half century of policies designed to favor the most wealthy at the expense of the majority - while also looking back on his own life of activism and political participation. Profoundly personal and thought provoking, Chomsky provides penetrating insight into what may well be the lasting legacy of our time - the death of the middle class, and swan song of functioning democracy. A potent reminder that power ultimately rests in the hands of the governed, REQUIEM is required viewing for all who maintain hope in a shared stake in the future.

The Trail Of The Troika | Documentary Film

The Trail Of The Troika
What is happening in Europe in the name of the troika? A must-see for anyone who wants to understand the situation in Greece and find out why the austerity policy imposed by Germany has failed. The European Union and International Monetary Fund have lent more than €400 billion to Greece, Ireland, Portugal and Cyprus to keep these countries solvent. The lenders granted enormous power to the three institutions of the so-called troika: the IMF, the European Central Bank and the European Commission. Without any public accountability, the troika is forcing the crisis states to implement policies that are tearing the social fabric of their countries apart. German journalist and best-selling author Harald Schumann traveled to Athens, Lisbon, Dublin, Nicosia, Brussels, Washington, New York and London, in order to find out who has actually benefited from austerity measures. He puts this question to ministers, parliamentarians, economists, bankers, doctors and also to the victims of these policies, the unemployed and the ill. Among the many people he meets are Nobel Prize winner Paul Krugman, IMF Director Paulo Batista and Yanis Varoufakis, the newly elected Greek finance minister. Schumann’s revelations are often devastating and shocking. Given the negotiations currently taking place between the newly elected Greek government and their European partners, this film is of great political and economic relevance.

Let’s Make Money
Austrian documentarist Erwin Wagenhofer helms this probing, penetrating and deeply critical look at the economic foundations of neo-liberalism in the early 21st century. Wagenhofer begins with the surface level reality of global finance - that of banks borrowing and lending money from consumers and corporations -and probes deeper to expose the many layers of the economic trade that lie just hidden from view. He thus reveals the unshakable and often frightening connections that exist between lay individuals and the various political schema attached to the world financial markets. This film emerged amid the global financial crisis of 2008, making it a timely effort indeed. Financial experts who turn up as onscreen interviewees/participants include such notables as George Belton, Miguel Angel Torres, Terry Lesueur, Yves Delisle and Hermann Scheer.
