Once upon a time, one poor, indebted country had a lot of copper and from it everybody in the country was benefiting a little bit. But then the price of copper fell. Somebody recommended that the country sell its mines, and this took place. Later, copper prices recovered, but now most of the money flew to pockets outside the country. Since then that same country has received almost nothing from its copper. Total nonsense? A documentary investigation into Zambia reveals the absurd story of a global economy in which you – with your European money – play a role too.
