Money as Debt
''Money as Debt'' is a 2006 animated documentary film by Canadian artist〔 and filmmaker Paul Grignon about the monetary systems practised through modern banking.〔 The film presents Grignon's view of the process of money creation by banks and its historical background, and warns of his belief in its subsequent unsustainability.〔〔〔 Subsequent ''Money as Debt'' videos include ''Money as Debt II'' (2009)〔; also titled ''Money as Debt II: Promises Unleashed'', 〕 and ''Money as Debt III: Evolution Beyond Money'' (2011).
==Background==
The film was conceived by Grignon in 2002 as an introduction to a 5-hour video commission for United Financial Consumers. He prefaced his video lecture with a re-telling of ''The Goldsmith’s Tale'' in animation form titled ''Money as Debt''. The Goldsmith's Tale is noted in the film as being "a brief and broadly allegorical history of banking" and should not be viewed as a complete or entirely accurate account of the history of banking. Expanded over a six-month period in 2006, it was Grignon's first full length animation project.〔〔
Much of the film presents the filmmaker's understanding of modern money creation in a fractional-reserve banking system. New money enters the economy through the indebtedness of borrowers, thus not only obligating the public to the money-issuing private banks but also creating an endless and self-escalating debt that is to eventually outgrow all other forms of wealth generation.〔 The film claims that this ever-increasing gravitation of money to banks is capable of impoverishing any nation. The film finishes by identifying some alternatives to modern banking, such as the nationalization of banks and payment of dividends to the public, establishing local exchange trading systems, or government printing of money.〔
