Synopsis
Based on Margaret Atwood’s bestselling book, Jennifer Baichwal's feature documentary Payback offers a look at how debt is a central organizing principle in our lives - influencing relationships, societies, governing structures and the very fate of this planet. Payback traces the links between debtor and creditor across centuries and cultures - in politics, literature, religion, sociology and economics - showing how debt has become an innate part of the human experience.

Jeff, Who Lives at Home has the best shot of the three. Or will any of the much more limited releases find an audience? Of those, The Kid with a Bike has the best shot at finding an audience. Additionally, Intouchables has a sneak peak on Saturday at the Paris Theater in New York City.
