The Barbarian Invasions

For foreign film aficionados, The Barbarian Invasions is good pick, as a dying French Canadian university professor is tended to by his economist/financier son. In addition to a great story, the film causes the viewer to look closely at Canada's health care system and the role of markets in bringing together the "sensual socialist" professor and his "puritanical capitalist" son. In Kent Library, IM DV 479.
