Michael Covel directs 'Broke: The New American Dream', an honest and humorous documentary detailing the 2007-2009 economic collapse. The film, however, is built around a timeless message, a message that will endure far beyond the current crisis and news cycle. No one asked Michael Covel to make this film. But, how else would we get the message? Covel travels 75,000 miles to find answers. He breaks new ground in the field of behavioral finance. From big Wall Street names to real estate agents to ordinary citizens, Covel asks the critical questions: how did we get here and what can we do about it? This riveting investigation dispels the irrational belief that the government can solve personal money woes. Fast-paced, informative, and truthful; this is a smart story with a Michael Moore edge. Most importantly, this film is about hope. We don't have to behave like sheep and we don't have to go 'broke.' Active and mindful audiences will discover that there is a way out. Less
