People have become increasingly worried that the threats we face today, like climate change and rising inequality, can't be solved by a capitalist economic system. So, is that true? And if it is, can we fix capitalism or do we need to tear the system down and build a new one from scratch? Explore the different types of capitalism and the role it plays in our society. \[Directed by Lorenzo Mercanti, AIM Creative Studios, narrated by George Zaidan, music by André Aires\].
