Traders
On Sunday, September 14, 2008, filming begins on the Wall Street Charity Boxing Championship, a gala evening where traders compete in the ring for the benefit of charities. But September 14 is also the day the Lehman Brother bank goes bankrupt. While Wall Street is going through the most serious crisis in its history, Jean-Stéphane Bron collects the words of these traders caught in the turmoil. The testimonies of Evan, Austin, Cécilia, Ben, collected between their working days and their training sessions, become the red thread of the story. In their intimacy, during the weeks that set the world economy on fire, the film highlights the excesses of a system, and describes the mechanisms of the crisis with fascinating clarity.
