I.O.U.S.A.

Per Mary Miliken of Reuters, "I.O.U.S.A. may not be the sexiest film at the Sundance Film Festival, but it could be the most timely as the documentary about deepening U.S. debt problems debuted in a week of tumbling financial markets and heightened fears of recession."

There are references to it being "An Inconvenient Truth" for the economy that uses humor with some pretty straight talk to create "a primer for ordinary Americans on the financial state of an economy saddled by a rapidly growing federal debt." It was part of the 2008 Sundance Movie Festival and is being released in selected cities on Aug. 22. Keep your eyes open for more press about it. I'm sure it will garner some.
