'Boom Bust Boom' offers seriously comic look at why crashes happen

The 2015 documentary "Boom Bust Boom" by Terry Jones of "Monty Python" fame explores the instability of our economic system - and offers a solution. It will be shown at 7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 25, at Unitarian Universalist Society of Geneva, 102 S. Second St.

A timely call to action, the film investigates the worldwide economic crash of 2008, and how to avoid another global collapse in the future.

Analyzing the direct link between the unstable financial system and our reliance on mainstream economics, the film puts a spotlight on the mistakes of the past some politicians and central bankers would like us to forget.

"Boom Bust Boom" is a seriously comic look at why crashes happen, told by a member of "Monty Python," the finest minds in economics, writers, puppets and a movie star.

The film is part of the free monthly fourth-Friday Film programs that are sponsored by the Social Justice Team of the Unitarian Universalist Society of Geneva.

The public is encouraged to register at uusg.org/friday-flicks/ to receive email notices of future programs.
