Director: Philippe Diaz
Docu, 106 min
French/English spoken

Poverty is not an accident. This shocking documentary goes back to 1492, when the modern age as we know it began and the ‘explorers’ started foraying for gold and other natural resources. Nobel Prize winners, economists, analysts and historians show that from then on our entire economic system has been based on poor people, who are forced to give up their land and natural resources or are the victims of dishonest business practices.
