Recessionize! For Fun and Profit!
A Film by Jamie Kastner
Canada 2010, 55', English
Jamie Kastner (Kike Like Me) sets off on a black-comic road trip through California, Europe and Dubai meeting those who manage to turn the world economic crisis into opportunity.
The quirky cast, at times funny and absurd and at times heartrending, range from kids at "Camp Millionaire", to Berlin prostitutes offering eco-discounts, to the owners of a French hotel promising a hamster experience.
The present-day journey is interwoven with the ironic tales of different financial solutions people resorted to during the 1930's Great Depression.
"Recessionize! For Fun And Profit!" tells a unique, bittersweet tale that touches on the universal ironies of modern market-guided existence.
Agreed. Interview on Lang & O'Leary Exchange made this movie look awesome!
