Hi folks

I found this to be a succinct little film on our money system and offers some ideas about changing it for the better.

There are gems like "we didnt earn air" when contemplating the idea of needing money to live.

Statement by the Director, Ian MacKenzie:

"After reading Charles Eisenstein's book Sacred Economics, which speaks eloquently about the return of the 'gift economy', I felt compelled to gift back. The best way I knew how was to use my filmmaking skills to share Charles' work, and spread it to communities around the globe. His vision of "the more beautiful world our hearts tell us is possible" is the salve that so many of us need at this time, in the age of great transition. My hope is this film catalyzes those who work with passion and dedication to live this world right now."

This got me curious about the book. Has anyone read it?

Very good...I am travelling with a friend at the moment and he has the book with him.
It has 496 pages and is a fairly big book. I read some pages through and it does sound very interesting.
It makes me want to buy it-the price is very low for such a big piece.
Maybe I can give you a little summary in a couple of days...
