The Day the dollar falls (Must see documentary) 2/6

Do we live on a bubble? Is it possible for the heavily indebted American economy to collapse and take all of us down in a free fall with it? Have the days of the dollar been counted? Is it really unimaginable that we will see the time of the Great Depression repeating itself?
VPRO Backlight and Dutch national newspaper NRC Handelsblad present this 'what if' scenario. What if the dollar collapses? Fiction meets facts in this 24 hour scenario. At 9AM a Singapore trader is ordered to sell a large amount of dollars, which sends off the enormous downfall of the dollar. This film shows the results for the world economy every following hour. It ends in Amsterdam, where the only currency accepted by a taxi driver is sigarettes...
History seems to have caught up with this 2005 film, though in slow-motion...
Includes interview with analist Stephen Roach, Andy Xie, Maarten Schinkel, Cees Maas, Rob de Wijk and Kees Vendrik.

@munrais I agree. I just thought the same thing. They didn't separate the two. I had to try to do it myself to stay on track. I hope they read your post.

The producers made one huge mistake: At times it is difficult to separate fiction events from reality facts. The result is that the whole argument thins awfully.
