Our monetary and financial system is a vehicle whose prototype was invented chiliads ago to make our lives easier. Since then that vehicle mutated frequently: From a simple chariot to the futuristic spacecraft we are all sitting in today without any possibility to get off. It's too bad that we're about to crash. So, let's come down to earth: The concept of money has already been quite abstract in its beginnings, thousands of years ago. Today, we transfer virtual amounts of money from one bank account to another and take for granted that, in the end, we can nourish on it. In the meantime the whole society seems to serve the system of money instead of having it the other way around. Into the bargain, our financial system is rather fragile: When banks, insurances and rating agencies first trust each other blindly but eventually lose their faith, it all collapses. So, what shall we do? Wait and see? Curse our monetary system? Or put it all aside without hesitation? Is this a real option? One thing is for sure. We know that we know nothing. And we also know that things can only change, if the populace establishes a deeper understanding of what is going on. It's not easy to deal with a deadpan and complicated topic like money. We will need more than just a couple of diagrams and nice talking. One should have an entertaining manual that provides more than just whinging about capitalism and denouncing the fat cats - fun both of these activities are, though. A confused user's guide to the concept of money to illustrate these complex connections in a way that everyone understands. Toddlers and pensioners, masters of money and financial aliens, the affected and the afflicted of all kinds, in short: people like you and me. "Money - A Crisis of Faith" designs such a manual. It is many-sided, clever, comical and politically ambitious while not being politically too correct. It's a creative documentary from the new millennium and it aims at nothing less than informing its public in an understanda-ble and amusing way about the status quo and the upcoming progress. Instead of arousing the viewer's worry and desperation it wants to contribute to his responsibility and self-sufficiency. This, we believe, is the only way to leave the monetary Middle Ages and enter the Age of economic Enlightenment.
