Finance films present the lives and deeds of bankers and the effects that money, credit, greed, and economic recessions have on the well-being, desires, values and actions of communities and individuals. Bringing together European and North American scholars, the collection covers such diverse fields as film studies, anthropology, business ethics, cultural studies, political economy, and sociology in exploring finance film. Their contributions reveal the potential of film to document financial cultures and spread capitalist mythology; trace economic, cultural and political transformations; raise awareness and express public outrage, and provide insightful criticism into the consequences of the growing role played by financial services in Western economies. The collection offers in-depth interdisciplinary investigations of feature films such as Wall Street, Downfall, Margin Call, Justice&CO, The Wolf of Wall Street, and The Big Short, and documentaries such as Inside Job, Capitalism a Love Story and In a Strange Land.
