內容簡介 | Jamaica became an independent country from Great Britain in 1962. It is the land of sea, sand and sun, but it is also a prime example of the complexities of economic globalization on the world's developing countries. Effectively portrays the relationship between Jamaican poverty and the practices of international lending agencies, such as the International Monetary Fund, while driving home the devastating consequences of globalization.

紀錄片債與命(Life and Debt)的導演Stephanie Black,以感性的旁白與生活畫面,配上理性辯析的訪談鏡頭,批判世界銀行和國際貨幣基金淪為替跨國企業服務的集團。許多搖搖欲墜的小國就像牙買加一樣,並沒有被這兩個以「解放世界貧窮」自詡的組織所拯救,卻在「全球市場」的偉大旗幟下血流成河。
天堂般的牙買加,音樂、美酒、自然環境,滿滿是迷人的風情。你不知道這個世界正在崩解,你不知道那慵懶的異國情調是因為人們根本無事可做,你不知道這個國家的外債多到足以沉沒整個島嶼,這些,如果你都不知道,也許債與命這部紀錄片,能讓你稍稍窺見真實的牙買加。[摘錄自:http://blog.roodo.com/brilliancy/archives/1551859.html
