The documentary "Inside Job" examines the 2008 global financial crisis over five parts: (1) how the crisis began through deregulation and risky financial practices, (2) the housing bubble, (3) the crisis and collapse, (4) lack of accountability as executives were paid bonuses, and (5) ongoing economic weaknesses. Directed by Charles Ferguson, it won the 2011 Oscar for best documentary and critiques the roles of banks, credit agencies, government officials, and economists in igniting and failing to prevent the crisis.
