Interesting documentary about the 2008 financial collapse in the US. Specifically focusing on a family that were so reliant on mortgages to keep their business running that they were at risk of losing their half built house - a house that, when completed, would be the largest residential home in the US. Bigger than the White House.
It was fascinating to look at how these people, who had spent their lives building up their fortune, dealt with the issues they faced when they lost their money, as well as their interactions with those around them.
