Deutsch-French-English-Italian versions. HOLY MONEY is the original title of the Play from which Enrico Bernard shot the film The Last Capitalist (2011), which was produced by OccupyWallStreet Film factory. It tells of an elderly and forgetful American multimillionaire, who has retired to a country estate, where he receives a visit by a young female Wall Street stock broker.The man begins a game of seduction with the attractive and apparently naive visitor, but things are not as they appear, and the woman reveals the true reason of her visit: to put the tycoon on trial. The play, with American rom-com tendencies and an unexpected but meaningful ending, deals with the serious theme of an exit strategy from an economic system that produces crisis and mental disasters, as the tycoon’s memory (or is it his conscience?) falls to pieces. Could this be a sign that capitalism has lost or forgotten its politically democratic function? The play creates many reasons for an intense and timely debate.
