Based on Brigitte Alepin's book *La Crise fiscale qui vient*, this gripping documentary explores how the "cloud" economy and aggressive tax avoidance strategies are eroding the financial foundations of democratic states, shifting economic burdens onto the middle class and exacerbating social inequality. With expert interviews, investigative research, and eye-opening revelations, *The Price We Pay* exposes the consequences of unchecked corporate greed and the urgent need for financial reform.
Premiering at the 2014 Toronto International Film Festival, the film was named to TIFF’s annual Top Ten Canadian Films list and received multiple award nominations, including a Canadian Screen Award for Best Editing in a Documentary and a Quebec Cinema nomination for Best Documentary Film. It won Best Canadian Documentary at the Vancouver Film Critics Circle Awards in 2014.
A must-watch for anyone concerned about economic justice and the future of global finance, "The Price We Pay" challenges viewers to question who truly bears the cost of corporate tax avoidance—and what can be done to stop it.
