A dive bar. Bankers, crooks, and crooked bankers. In the animated, fictional narrative we are presented with real interviewees: two U.S. economists, an activists, a criminologist. In its presentation, the setting barely betrays its fictitious nature. A stylish film about the almost absurd tricks and practices of the financial market; an unabashed look behind the scenes of the “crisis” master-narrative.
