This documentary explores the mechanics of the modern monetary system, challenging the common perception that money is a finite resource managed by governments. Through interviews with economists and financial experts, the film reveals how commercial banks create the vast majority of the money supply through the issuance of loans, effectively turning debt into currency. By examining the historical shift from gold-backed standards to the current fiat system, the narrative highlights the inherent instability of an economy built on perpetual debt creation and the profound implications this has for society, wealth distribution, and the power dynamics between private financial institutions and the public.
