SYNOPSIS

“Plain Old Greed”, Exandas new documentary film, is an “economic thriller” or, rather, a social horror movie which is timelier than ever. Through the saddening stories of those who lose their homes because of the savage bank raid emerges the famous “housing crisis” which torments the US economy and causes huge damage at a global level. However, what is more important is the unveiling of the logic of modern globalized economy and its “secret mechanisms”. In other words, the money market’s new way of making money… out of thin air!
