An investigative documentary that examines the alarming and inexorable rise of household over-indebtedness throughout Europe, and the battle against this economic, social and human scourge. All over Europe, household over-indebtedness is on the rise; it’s a ticking time bomb. Though it doesn’t always lead to suicide, it often causes a ‘little death’ of economic and social exclusion and serious psychological distress, a nightmare from which it is extremely hard to escape.

English For thirty years, we Czechs have been living in a post-communist society, but I still haven't gotten rid of the illusion that the West works better than our corner of the world. This documentary has dispelled that misconception - the same crooks, same lies, same usurious methods, and an effort to manipulate gullible clients. What you need is caution, financial literacy, and a government that stands on the side of its citizens, not financial speculators. Overall impression: 75%. ()
