Inside Job is a 2010 American documentary film, directed by Charles Ferguson, about the late 2000s financial crisis.

The global financial meltdown that took place in Fall of 2008 caused millions of job and home losses and plunged the United States into a deep economic recession.

This documentary provides a detailed examination of the elements that led to the collapse and identifies key financial and political players.

Director Charles Ferguson conducts a wide range of interviews and traces the story from the United States to China to Iceland to several other global financial hot spots.

Ferguson, who began researching in 2008, says the film is about "the systemic corruption of the United States by the financial services industry and the consequences of that systemic corruption". In five parts, the film explores how changes in the policy, environment and banking practices helped create the financial crisis.

I had been patiently waiting for this doc to drop on Netflix. I cried like a baby, multiple times. Very, very good.

Mats Steen, a Norwegian gamer, died of a degenerative muscular disease at the age of 25. His parents mourned what they thought had been a lonely and isolated life, when they started receiving messages from online friends around the world.

"While not for the squeamish, this series of three short films by Melissa Hogenboom and Pierangelo Pirak is pretty much essential for anyone not daunted by the sight of corpses and the reality of death. An exquisitely shot blend of wry re-enactment, vox-pop and gentle documentary, this compact trilogy takes us to Palermo to find out about Sicily's religious and cultural traditions of mummification, from the Middle Ages until the early 20th century. If this is the kind of eccentric cultural mini doc BBC Reel is hoping to specialise in, it should be applauded” by Andrew Male for The Times

Absolutely fascinating stuff. The power of social engineering, charm and confidence by two very young kids is mind blowing. Some very funny bits in it too.
