The Flaw is a new documentary released this autumn. It offers a fresh and provocative account of the causes and consequences of the global financial crisis. Told from an American perspective and using first hand testimony from bankers, borrowers, brokers and the brightest economic brains, The Flaw argues that rising income inequality was a significant and hitherto under-reported factor in the dramatic increase in debt which led to the instability that caused the crash. There is a screening of The Flaw at the RSA (London) on Monday 11th October from 6.30pm to 8.30pm and tickets are free - available from this link. It promises to be a fascinating screening and follow-up discussion with the Director.
