Chicago Boys

"Chicago Boys" tells the story of a group of Chilean economists who studied under Milton Friedman at the University of Chicago in the 1950s and went on to play a key role in implementing extreme capitalist policies in Chile during the 1970s and 80s. The film features unseen images and testimonies from the economists themselves, offering a unique perspective on how their ideas were shaped and how they were willing to go to extremes to pursue their vision. As the film explores the historic process that transformed Chile, it also examines the discontent and criticism that the system has faced in recent years, raising important questions about the consequences of radical economic ideologies.
