Finding the Money

Finding the Money follows economist Stephanie Kelton as she endeavours to establish a new understanding of money in the USA. With the help of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT), she turns many an economic worldview on its head and offers an unorthodox view of topics ranging from climate change to social justice.

The film follows two interwoven storylines. On the one hand, MMT is presented in its main features, and on the other, the controversy surrounding it is discussed with representatives of both camps.
