Life & Debt
Life and Debt is a feature-length documentary which addresses the impact of the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, the Inter-American Development Bank and current globalization policies on a developing country such as Jamaica.
Life & Debt is a woven tapestry of sequences focusing on the stories of individual Jamaicans whose strategies for survival and parameters of day-to-day existence are determined by the U.S. and other foreign economic agendas. By combining traditional documentary telling with a stylized narrative framework, the complexity of international lending, structural adjustment policies and free trade will be understood in the context of the day-to-day realities of the people whose lives they impact.

Zeer goede documentaire.
Hoe IMF etc. 'ontwikkelingslanden' als Jamaica op weg 'helpen'.
Raakt een beetje verdrukt door omringende lappen tekst hier, helaas.
De reakties aldaar (16 toen ik las) dragen onbedoeld bij aan de verklaring.
Shockerend, hoe dom al dat onverbloemde racisme.
