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.

Awesome! It's not a die-hard documentary, but still the movie rocks.
I've always loved this movie and watched it many times.
After about ten minutes I was completely drawn in, all the way to the end. Very enjoyable!
Without giving away too much, Christian Decker just kills it. He is one class actor. The impressions his portrayal gives us is that he was born to play this role!
This movie was amazing from start to finish and then beyond to the point where I am reviewing it now.
One of the better movies I've seen lately.
Awesome job on producing the movie. Very intense! Kept me on edge.
Very highly recommended to add to your movie collection.
Christian Decker turned in his best performance of his lifetime! Manuel Stagars was an amazing supporting actress! I have never seen anything like it. I would recommend you see this movie as fast as you can
One of the best Short movies ever made . An Orgasmic Audio-Visual Fair!
Absolutely brilliant - I loved every minute. I can't afford to buy many DVD's but I bought this one without any hesitation!
