Payback plot

'Payback' is a penetrating and moving exploration of debt, not only as an economic condition, but also as a primal human dilemma. Based on Margaret Atwood's prescient bestseller Payback: Debt and the Shadow Side of Wealth, Jennifer Baichwal's cinematic adaptation traces four disparate stories of crime and punishment in Albania and Canada, the ecological deficit created in the Gulf War and alarming working conditions in Florida. A story supported by illuminating advice from a wide range of intellectuals.
