About the Film
The global multi-crisis is accelerating, it affects all levels of society: democracy, climate, biodiversity, migration, justice, equality, institutions, farming … And yet, there is no mainstream debate about the issue at the core of many — if not all — of these problems: our economies. How they function, what they deliver and how they are designed is not really part of our public conversation.
The economic system that is running our societies has a very narrow focus: We must “grow the GDP”, i.e. make more money, no matter the cost. Rather than improving our lives, this logic is now tearing our societies and our planet apart. But no one seems to be working on a viable political alternative.
