Friends, please can you dedicate 2 hours of your life to watch this film, it may very well be the most important film you're ever going to see:

It's a difficult film to sum up in a few words, but basically it starts out covering how our monetary system works and how this system of debt controls us, holds us back and benefits the few before moving onto international free market capitalism which does the same on a global scale.
I've posted this in the Philosophy section because it's not really political as we know it.
The film covers so much ground I won't go into it, just urge everyone to dedicate the time to watching this movie. Most of us want some for of change in the world, none of us can look around and say "the human race is doing pretty well" when you really look into what is happening around the globe and what is causing it.
It ends with actual solutions, nothing airy-fairy, to all of our real world problems.
Also, after watching the film, head on over to http://www.thezeitgeistmovement.com/ to see what you can do.
