Documentary on the events that led to the economic collapse of Argentina
in 2001 which wiped out the middle class and raised the level of
poverty to 57.5%. Central to the collapse was the implementation of
neo-liberal policies which enabled the swindle of billions of dollars by
foreign banks and corporations. Many of Argentina's assets and
resources were shamefully plundered. Its financial system was even used
for money laundering by Citibank, Credit Suisse, and JP Morgan. The net
result was massive wealth transfers and the impoverishment of society
which culminated in many deaths due to oppression and malnutrition.
Official name: Memoria del Saqueo by Fernando Solanas 2003.
