Loosely inspired by the story of the founder of the bank of the poor, the Nobel laureate economist Muhammad Yunus and his Grameen Bank, the movie "Damn the misery" is was co-produced by RAI Fiction and RAI Cinema, with contributions dell'Apulia Film Commission and was presented in competition at 63sima International Film Festival of Salerno.
The film will air in first run on Rai 1 on 2 June 2010 at about 21:15 (the beginning of prime time in general networks is always subject to delays depending on how ending the competing programs).
un'accenno below the plot.
Antonio (Sergio Assisi), Chicchino (Thomas Ramenghi) and Marina (Gabriella Pession), thirty of talent, returning from India in Naples decided to make the micro-credit system designed in India by the Banker to the Poor Muhammad Yunus, for enable poor people to start a business on its own emancipation from dishonest employers and placing himself in conflict with the rules of the Camorra. The story is interwoven (could be missing?) With the intrigues that bind the three characters: that Antonio is Chicchino are in love with Marina, but she clearly can not decide between the two ....
The film is set in Naples, but most of the filming took place in Puglia (Martina Franca, Taranto, Brindisi), two more weeks of filming in Rome and two days in Naples.
During the making of the film in the fall of 2008, the crew was forced to abandon Taranto, and leaving for Brindisi, due to requests lace by local criminals, [2], and later arrested by the police.
Overall television viewing could be an interesting approach to the issue of whether the ethical bank will certainly be very watered down.
