When the Wright brothers invented the airplane in 1903, it was hard to imagine there would be over 500,000 people traveling in the air at any point in time today. In 2008, Satoshi Nakamoto invented Bitcoin and the blockchain. For the first time in history, his invention made it possible to send money around the globe without banks, governments or any other intermediaries. Satoshi is a mystery character, and just like the Wright brothers, he solved an unsolvable problem. The concept of the blockchain isn't very intuitive. But still, many people believe it is a game changer. Despite its mysterious beginnings, the blockchain might be the airplane of our time. Manuel Stagars portrays this exciting technology in interviews with software developers, cryptologists, researchers, entrepreneurs, consultants, VCs, authors, politicians, and futurists from the United States, Canada, Switzerland, the UK, and Australia. How can the blockchain benefit the economies of nations? How will it change society? What does this mean for each of us? The Blockchain and Us does not explain the technology but starts a conversation about its potential wider implications. The film deliberately poses more questions than it answers.

It is beautiful and it's such a pleasure to see Perianne Boring and David Birch in roles they deserve.
A must see Perianne Boring and David Birch movie! These characters have made this movie fantastic. Worth the bucks!
I was not expecting this movie to be good....at all. Must see if you are a hardcore MOVIE Fan!
I was on the edge of my seat the entire time!!! Loved this film!
Amazing exercise of stunning colour, isn't just a Documentary, it's a accomplishment, and is by far this year's best film.
Incredible I went to the cinemas to see this, and as a huge Perianne Boring fan I found no disappointment. David Birch are also favourite actor of mine and bringing them all together made me most happy. I loved the plot and how it is so compelling and intriguing.
We really enjoyed this movie! Thought it was very entertaining.
