Life And Debt

Jamaica - land of sea, sand and sun. And a prime example of the impact
economic globalization can have on a developing country. Using conventional
and unconventional documentary techniques, this searing film dissects the
"mechanism of debt" that is destroying local agriculture and industry while
substituting sweat-shops and cheap imports. Life and Debt is an unapologetic
look at the "new world order," from the point of view of Jamaican workers,
farmers, government and policy officials who see the reality of
globalization from the ground up. An Independent Television Service (ITVS)
Co-presentation.
