Small fortunes

microcredit and the future of poverty

This documentary explores the issues of poverty and microcredit as it features interviews with numerous recipients of small loans (generally under $100) in locales throughout the world. Most of these recipients are women who are unable to secure a traditional loan. Most borrowers are able to pay back their loans, and have enough profit to reinvest in their businesses, their homes, and their children.
