German Premiere
Director: Ramin Bahrani
Section: Spotlight
Desperate to save his family home, an unemployed construction worker is seduced by an unscrupulous realtor into joining him in the dirty business of foreclosing on the disenfranchised and reaping the financial benefits. Having made this 'deal with the devil', he continues deeper into the heart of the corrupt housing industry and his financial worries begin to disappear, but the growing moral strain threatens to tear his family apart while his conscience begins to break him down.
Hyde Park Entertainment Group
"The 99% is a global phenomenon. The common man around the world can no longer do hard honest work and expect to thrive against systematic greed and corruption. When faced by the firing squad, does a man join hands with his executioner? Is there any choice to make other than a deal with the devil?"
