When money drives almost all activity on the planet, it's essential that we understand it. Yet simple questions often get overlooked - questions like:
Where does money come from?
Who creates it?
Who decides how it gets used?
And what does that mean for the millions of ordinary people who suffer when money and finance breaks down?
97% Owned (the Directors Cut of his documentary 'Positive Money') reveals how money is at the root of our current social and economic crisis. Featuring frank interviews and commentary from economists, campaigners and former bankers, it exposes the privatised, debt-based monetary system that gives banks the power to create money, shape the economy, cause crises and push house prices out of reach.
Fact-based and clearly explained, it shows how the power to create money is the piece of the puzzle that economists were missing when they failed to predict the crisis.
The documentary lasts for an hour.

One of today’s biggest paradoxes is that half of the world’s population lives in cities, yet many feel lonely and do not know their neighbours…
Imagine 20 households, each with its own dwelling, but all
sharing some common rooms and activities. Urban and rural cohousing
schemes make life easier and more fun for both adults and children,
while preserving privacy. This documentary, based on interviews
conducted in 14 cohousings, shows that another life is possible. This
dvd also has a 22 min. practical advice section.
from Jonathan Dawson: "This is an attractive film that tells the story of the modern cohousing movement through the voices of people in Scandinavia and northern Europe who actually live in cohousing settlements. It is accessible, clear, well-structured and should be of great interest, especially to those who are new to the cohousing phenomenon. The many advantages of cohousing life - a strong sense of community, a great place to bring up kids and to grow old, working towards having a lower footprint - are well covered and illustrated. This film is a little gem of simple story-teling."
Program: 7pm - arrive and eat if you want to.
8pm - Screening (44 minutes long).
9pm - A facilitated discussion (in a 'World Cafe' setting),
led by Jeremy Green and Ruth Schamroth from http://nlshp.org/

Water, the Great Mystery
 |
A film about water, the most amazing yet least studied substance. From time immemorial, scientists, philosophers and theologians tried to understand its explicit and implicit properties, which are phenomenal, beyond the common physical laws of nature. See the DVD on Amazon |
